"One secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes." ― Benjamin Disraeli Topic(s): Life Tags: secret, success More From Benjamin Disraeli "Finality is not the language of politics." "A man may speak very well in the House of Commons, and fail very completely in the House of Lords. There are two distinct styles requisite: I intend, in the course of my career, if I have time, to give a specimen of both." "Beware of endeavoring to become a great man in a hurry. One such attempt in ten thousand may succeed. These are fearful odds."
