I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind.
George Bernard Shaw

Henri Frederic Amiel
Virgin Blue has already succeeded; Air Asia has an impressive domestic share. I think ValuAir has a chance because the local market is very price sensitive. We could see them emerge in China once re-structuring has occurred. I give the market 6-18 months before we see success.
David Pettigrew
John Kerry has fought again and again to extend unemployment benefits for workers left behind in the Bush economy. The reason we haven't succeeded is because George Bush opposes extending unemployment insurance, and so do his allies.

Sharon Holt
It's a great deal for us, really perfect because people are already excited, thinking about Georgia, seeing an event happening in Georgia, a premiere event that gathers national attention. And if we can show them an ad that makes that connection that prompts them to look at our Web site and think of our state as a vacation destination then we've succeeded.
Bert Brantley
We've succeeded to get our hands on an important historical document that was so close to being lost and destroyed forever.

Barbara Becnel
We proceeded to start a professional theatre but not really knowing how to do it. As my mom said, 'The reason it succeeded is because we didn't know that we didn't know how to run a theatre.' Raleigh didn't have a strong professional theatre where you could see high-quality revivals. [Audiences] ate it up. We grew from there.
William Jones
I do not deny that many appear to have succeeded in a material way by cutting corners and by manipulating associates, both in their professional and in their personal lives. But material success is possible in this world and far more satisfying when it comes without exploiting others.

George Stephanopoulos
Failure was never an option. You never gave up and kept trying until you succeeded.
Amrit Gill
The desire for freedom in China is as strong as ever before. The 1989 effort almost succeeded. The fact that it failed in 1989, the fact that the leaders - over 1,000 of them - were executed does not mean that one-fifth of the world's population wishes to be held under the thumb of communism forever.
Christopher Cox
It's important. When we started, we had Karim. We succeeded in the pitching [today] but failed on offense. We had an opponent who pitched us very aggressively.
Paquin Estrada
All we knew was we needed to speed the game up to have a chance. It's not like (Mitchell) can't run the floor, because they can. But it's what we do best and we had to get it going more. We just succeeded doing it better than them at the end.
Brandon Evans
It will be an uphill battle, but we've been fighting an uphill battle for the last three weeks. So far we've succeeded.
Gary Chapman
It's a matter of choice. But there's no substitute for being in class. Just as they have to spend a certain amount of time on the waves to attain a necessary level of skill, they also have to spend enough time in the classroom to attain a high level of knowledge. Sure, some people have succeeded in life without a proper education, but those are few and far between.
Sara Stern
We think they succeeded in two key objectives. One, setting a very positive tone that almost immediately reversed the negative post-fourth-quarter sentiment. Second, quite forcefully correcting and dispelling concerns over George Reyes' comments on growth and monetization from earlier in the week.
Ben Schachter
Independence Air worked really well here. They may have not succeeded nationally but we were in their top 10 cities and we were the largest city in their top 10 cities so our people supported it so well.
Becky Huckaby
To my knowledge, it has never succeeded that a terrorist group or any group could change the course of events in a country simply by activities that were meant to paralyze the population by inducing fear or anxiety.

Ivica Dacic
Imagine going in knowing that no Mexican American before you had ever succeeded in a lead role.
George Lopez
It was very difficult championship. We are very happy we succeeded this time. It's a victory of all small countries.
Albena Denkova

George Ishak
The idea of remotely monitoring and controlling catering equipment over the Internet isn't new. But nobody succeeded in doing it.

Stephen Read
Rehnquist thought [the court] had gone way too far, and in many dissents was working to cut it back. He succeeded, and he began to succeed even before he became chief justice. He gradually cut back federal-court supervision of state prosecutions. [The death penalty ban] was reversed. And the limits upon prosecutors and police were rationalized and relaxed.
Charles Fried
In our opinion, companies that cannot sustain high revenue growth eventually see their premium erode over the sector. Although Cisco has succeeded in moving attention away from its lack of top-line growth to improved margins, we believe that investors are hardly attracted to a cost-cutting story.
Ariane Mahler
They succeeded in meeting expectations, not the least on the top line and they had a decent profitability, helped by earlier cost-cutting measures.
Tommi Saukkoriipi
Red-haired, fair skinned people have a higher instance of skin cancer than black-haired individuals. And the melanin pigment in the skin of red haired people differs chemically from the melanin in the skin of those with black hair. So researchers have tried to compare the red with the black pigments, but have not succeeded in comparing the isolated human pigments until now.
John Simon
It was an attempt, a bold attempt, one that succeeded in some respects to obstruct the justice sought by a fellow American citizen. That is heavy. That is soul-searching in its quality. That goes beyond those who would say, 'He committed perjury about sex so what,'.
George Gekas
The true measure of a career is to be able to be content, even proud, that you succeeded through your own endeavors without leaving a trail of casualties in your wake.
Alan Greenspan
Ang Lee has succeeded in presenting this highly controversial situation in an intelligent and sensitive fashion and secured outstanding performances from the entire cast. It is a feat which has been rightly recognized.

Lamar Hunt
The plan to reduce the number of speculators in the market succeeded.
Michael Fowler
I can't decide if the accord was a genuine attempt to bring the groups together that failed or a bid to divide the Sunnis that succeeded.

Sidney Sheldon
If we come out of this meeting with a framework for the process for a political transition, then we will have succeeded. This is the first step in a long road toward establishing good governance in Afghanistan.
Ahmad Fawzi
Because the results are expressed in numbers, it is easy to make the mistake of thinking that the intelligence test is a measure like a foot ruler or a pair of scales. It is, of course, a quite different sort of measure. Intelligence is not an abstraction like length and weight; it is an exceedingly complicated notion - which nobody has yet succeeded in defining.
Walter Lippmann
Those who have succeeded at anything and don't mention luck are kidding themselves.
Larry L. King
In my career quite a few people have tried to force me out, but so far no one has succeeded.
Ferdinand Piech
We are at the point where we have succeeded in accomplishing what we wanted to do.

Ferdinand Piech
His real intention appears to be to deliver a blow to the patella of a conglomerate-controlled press corps that, until recently, has indulged the Bush administration's most extravagant smears and lies, ... He has completely succeeded.
David Denby
I succeeded in turning a building into a business.
Dave Checketts
America has succeeded because she was founded a Christian nation and if we hope to stop the moral decline in America and the world, we must return to those principles. We are preaching a simple message of doing what is simply right and to stop doing what is simply wrong.
Don Swarthout
The only thing I succeeded in doing last night was wasting a lot of time and gas driving to and from the airport.
Bill Krueger
He actually believed in his heart that he would better them by his conviction and his beliefs and his skills, and I think largely succeeded. What he leaves behind is a tremendous challenge for the rest of us and a guiding force.
Paul Slattery
Nokia has once again succeeded in attracting the upper end of the market with its sophisticated phones and big mid-range portfolio. It has been more successful in this group than its rivals.
Jussi Hyoty

Stuart Grossman
The Revolution has not yet succeeded. Comrades, you must carry on!
Sun Yat sen

Ellen Malcolm
We invaded to get him [Aristide] out. Now we've got the guy who succeeded Aristide as the president.
Eduardo Gamarra
The result was what we expected… that was what we set out to do and we succeeded. Ghana are a very good, fast team and if they didn't have a man sent off the field, we would have had much more trouble.
Zhang Ning
The result was what we expected ... that was what we set out to do and we succeeded.
