"However things may seem, no evil thing is success and no good thing is failure." ― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Topic(s): Success More From Henry Wadsworth Longfellow "Each morning sees some task begun, each evening sees it close; Something attempted, something done, has earned a night’s repose." "Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody." "Lives of great men all remind us, we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us, footprints on the sands of time." More In Success "It would be a joy for me if someone who was working with me became a big success."― Shigeru Miyamoto "Every day of my life I walk with the idea that I am black, no matter how successful I am. And our success is tempered by that; you’re successful in this way given the fact you are black, and most blacks don’t get to that point."― Danny Glover "America cannot continue to lead the family of nations around the world if we suffer the collapse of the family here at home."― Mitt Romney
