'T is man's to fight, but Heaven's to give success.
Forward, as occasion offers. Never look round to see whether any shall note it. . . . Be satisfied with success in even the smallest matter, and think that even such a result is no trifle.
Success is man's god.
Most people judge men only by success or by fortune.
'T is not in mortals to command success,
But we 'll do more, Sempronius,—we 'll deserve it.
Nothing succeeds like success.
The secret of success is constancy to purpose.
Born for success he seemed,
With grace to win, with heart to hold,
With shining gifts that took all eyes.
Didst thou never hear
That things ill got had ever bad success?
And happy always was it for that son
Whose father for his hoarding went to hell?
The Duke of Wellington brought to the post of first minister immortal fame,—a quality of success which would almost seem to include all others.
Besides, this Duncan
Hath borne his faculties so meek, hath been
So clear in his great office, that his virtues
Will plead like angels, trumpet-tongued, against
The deep damnation of his taking-off;
And pity, like a naked new-born babe,
Striding the blast, or heaven's cherubim, horsed
Upon the sightless couriers of the air,
Shall blow the horrid deed in every eye,
That tears shall drown the wind. I have no spur
To prick the sides of my intent, but only
Vaulting ambition, which o'erleaps itself,
And falls on the other.
