I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best.
If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it would not seem so wonderful at all.
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra.
Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn’t even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.
If you focus on success, you’ll have stress. But if you pursue excellence, success will be guaranteed.
If you have a dream, don’t just sit there. Gather courage to believe that you can succeed and leave no stone unturned to make it a reality.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.
The quality of a man's life is in direct proportion to his commitment to excellence, regardless of his chosen field of endeavor.
Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.
The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort.
People of excellence go the extra mile to do what’s right.
Your talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines how much you are willing to do. Your attitude determines how well you do it.
Good is the enemy of great.
Excellence/Perfection is not a destination; it is a continuous journey that never ends.
Life is like a play: it’s not the length, but the excellence of the acting that matters.
Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.
He who would accomplish little need sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much. He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.
Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.
To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
Success is peace of mind in knowing you did your best.
