“Failure is really a matter of conceit. People don’t work hard because, in their conceit, they imagine they’ll succeed without ever making an effort. Most people believe they’ll wake someday and find themselves rich. Actually, they got it half right, because eventually they do wake up.”
“It’s natural for those you pass on your way to the top to percieve you as shallow, greedy, and selfish. It’s either that or confess to themselves that they’re lazy, shiftless, and stupid.”
