Success consists in being successful, not in having potential for success. Any wide piece of ground is the potential site of a palace, but there's no palace till it's built.

The quick success was a bit strange to get used to.

In a way, a certain amount of self-criticism is a good thing, because it keeps you humble. Realizing that no matter what success you've achieved, you can still make enemies makes you humble, too.

Success is the necessary misfortune of life, but it is only to the very unfortunate that it comes early.

Success is not in never failing, but rising everytime you fall!
