I think the success of democracy is not really police security; it's the presence of a broad middle class. The stronger the middle class of a people is, the less you have to worry about one group coming in and exploiting the democratic process for its own ends.

Abdullah II of Jordan

Success You Worry

Being self-made means putting yourself in position to help others put themselves in position to be successful.

A Boogie wit da Hoodien

Success Yourself Yours

Perfecting your craft is one of the main keys in being successful.

A tremendous social responsibility comes with being a successful public performer.

A. Bartlett Giamatti

Success Men Wit

My dad was very successful running midgets in Texas. Then, his two drivers ran into some bad luck. People started saying that Daddy had lost his touch. That it was the cars and not the drivers. I wanted to race just to prove all those people wrong.

A. J. Foyt

Nearly all monster stories depend for their success on Jack killing the Giant, Beowulf or St. George slaying the Dragon, Harry Potter triumphing over the basilisk. That is their inner grammar, and the whole shape of the story leads towards it.

A. N. Wilson

War Success Yin

Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Success Use Us

Creativity is the key to success in the future, and primary education is where teachers can bring creativity in children at that level.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Teacher Success Future

Tell me, why is the media here so negative? Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognise our own strengths, our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Success Strength Men

Those who cannot work with their hearts achieve but a hollow, half-hearted success that breeds bitterness all around.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Work Success Art

I firmly believe that unless one has tasted the bitter pill of failure, one cannot aspire enough for success.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Success Failure Unless

For success of any mission, it is necessary to have creative leadership. Creative leadership is vital for government, non-governmental organisations as well as for industries.

A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Success Men Leadership

I must stress here the point that I appreciate clarity, order, meaning, structure, rationality: they are necessary to whatever provisional stability we have, and they can be the agents of gradual and successful change.

A. R. Ammons

Success Change Age

Success comes to those who dedicate everything to their passion in life. To be successful, it is also very important to be humble and never let fame or money travel to your head.

A. R. Rahman

Travel Success Money

A musician is a professional, whether he or she is successful or not. The profession itself must be regarded as a stable job.

A. R. Rahman

Success Music Whether

After a point of time, when you get success and fame, money and everything, the purpose of life has to be redefined. For me, I think that purpose is to build bridges. Artists can do that very easily, more than politicians.

A. R. Rahman

Time Success Money

The more dollars the studio producers put in, the less freedom we have. If the budget hits $100m, they get scared - they'll take the existing score of a successful movie and expect composers to copy it, like wallpaper. The biggest challenge for any composer in Hollywood is to be as creative as possible within those boundaries.

A. R. Rahman

I don't think about my previous success. I'm happy that the work I've done has been very successful.

Aaliyah

Work Success Very

I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.

Aamir Khan

Success Failure Unsuccessful

When I was new, I didn't know where my career will go. Initially, my films were not even successful, but then I learned a lot from my mistakes.

Aamir Khan

Success Car Will

Our choices are quite different: what attracts Salman and Shah Rukh are, I think, quite different from what attracts me. So in that sense, we are quite different, but I think we are fortunate to have had the kind of success that we've had.

Aamir Khan

Success UN Tuna

You always want to have success, but you never think it will be as big as it is.

Aaron Donald

A lot of my success, and a lot of who I am now, is because of my dad, and the way he raised me and taught me how to have a work ethic.

Aaron Donald

I feel like I've got a lot of football things I need to work on to have that success that I want to have in this league.

Aaron Donald

Anytime you're rewarded for the success you have, you're going to be happy because you put the body of work in. A lot of hard work. A lot of training. A lot of things you do behind the scenes.

Aaron Donald

If it helps me in the way that if this movie is successful, I get to make more films, great, and the more films that I make and the more interest that I'm allowed to cover, the better for me and the better, hopefully, for the people who like to watch me.

Aaron Eckhart

Repeating, trying to repeat success - it never gets easier.

Aaron Judge

I know I can't plan in this business, but I'm going to keep going as long as I keep getting close... So far, I feel lucky and infinitely grateful for the successes that I've had. I'm just going to keep working hard, and whatever happens, happens.

Aaron Lazar

The way you dress or the car you drive or what you spend is to impress other people with how, I guess, successful and rich you are. But you're not, and you shouldn't, and who gives a damn what other people think anyway. So, that mentality, I think, is very destructive.

Aaron Patzer

I saw a lot of people have success handed to them that then exploited it. They didn't protect it or cherish it.

Aaron Paul

In general, when you have success on the field, you're more popular, and you have that fame that comes with it. You realize you're in the public eye more, and you've got to be a little bit more careful about some of the things you're doing out in public and make sure you're smart about the things you say.

Aaron Rodgers

I feel as if I've been fairly successful with maintaining a cohesive tone between the work I make as a photographer and as a director.

Aaron Ruell

Latin food suffers like Chinese. You can do marginal Chinese and be successful. You can do crappy Mexican and be packed.

Aaron Sanchez

Almost inevitably there are tensions in the picture, tensions between the outside world and the inside world. For me, a successful picture resolves these tensions without eliminating them.

Aaron Siskind

I've loved every minute I've spent in television. And I've had much more failure, as traditionally measured, than success in television. I've done four shows, and only one of them was the 'West Wing.'

Aaron Sorkin

It is ironic that it doesn't matter how successful I am in any other capacity: ultimately, my parents' marker is 'Do you have a wife?' and 'Do you have children?'

Aasif Mandvi

Far from being a mere consequence of winning, strong team spirit is an essential ingredient of sporting success; it comes before, not afterwards.

AB de Villiers

I know my game pretty well, and that is the secret to success in most sports.

AB de Villiers

It's true that humanity has seen a succession of crises, wars and atrocities, but this negative side is offset by advances in technology and cultural exchanges.

Abbe Pierre

My success rate speaks for itself.

Abby Lee Miller

I think that in order to get better as an athlete and to see whatever kind of results you're after, you have to make goals. Whether you write them down or tell someone about them, it's important to set goals for yourself in order to achieve any kind of success.

Abby Wambach

In our view, successful reform is not an event. It is a sustainable process that will build on its own successes - a virtuous cycle of change.

Abdullah II of Jordan

I think the success of democracy is not really police security; it's the presence of a broad middle class. The stronger the middle class of a people is, the less you have to worry about one group coming in and exploiting the democratic process for its own ends.

Abdullah II of Jordan

I come from a world where you get the film done, that's a success.

Abel Ferrara

The reaction to 'Dev D' success wasn't a balanced one from my end. I ran away! I should have stayed around and seen how I could balance things. But I wasn't capable of that.

Abhay Deol

It is not a happy time when a film doesn't do well... Everything affects you, success affects you and failure also affects you.

Abhay Deol

It's not that I don't want to do different films. The non-mainstream stuff that I did started to get successful... But for an industry which runs essentially on money, they do put you in a box.

Abhay Deol

Milk production is one of India's great success stories.

Abhijit Banerjee

I have learnt the hard way that neither success nor failure last forever.

Abhimanyu Singh

If I give five flops, I won't get a job. You have to perform at the box office when you are at the top. No one is running a charity here. People are putting huge amounts of money to make movies, and they want the films to be successful. They have invested money in you, so it is your duty to make sure the film does well.

Abhishek Bachchan

A successful film is a good film, and a non-successful film is a bad film. It's as simple as that.
