"It’s the price of success: people start to think you’re omnipotent." ― Ben Bernanke Topic(s): Success More From Ben Bernanke "Well, the U.S., of course, is the world’s largest economy. It’s about a quarter of the world’s output. It’s also home to many of the largest financial institutions and financial markets." "The lesson of history is that you do not get a sustained economic recovery as long as the financial system is in crisis." More In Success "It’s hard for children’s authors to be accepted when they try to write adult books. J.K. Rowling is the exception because people are so eager to read anything by her, but it took Judy Blume three or four tries before she had a success."― R. L. Stine "I feel like I want to take care of everyone and I also feel this terrible guilt if I am unable to. And I have felt this way ever since all this success started."― Jim Carrey "Your success depends mainly upon what you think of yourself and whether you believe in yourself."― William J. H. Boetcker
