3 December 2020 Matthew Sweet Girlfriend and 100 Percent Fun were my two peeks, around ’92 and ’96. The reality is that the times I had the most media success, sold lots of records and played bigger shows, I had the least control of my own life.
3 December 2020 Katherine Dunham We had maybe the greatest success of any company that I know of in Paris, and after two or three years I wanted to do this same number that we did for PBS, so we did it and Paris had always considered us their darlings.
3 December 2020 Lauren Conrad There is never just one thing that leads to success for anyone. I feel it always a combination of passion, dedication, hard work, and being in the right place at the right time.
3 December 2020 Idris Elba I’d rather a young black actor read about success as opposed to how tough it was. I get these roles because I can act and that’s it. Hopefully that’s it.
3 December 2020 Kevin Smith All these people who say success changes people well, no, it just magnifies what’s there.

3 December 2020 Coco Chanel Success is often achieved by those who don’t know that failure is inevitable.
3 December 2020 Dannii Minogue Everyone has determination – it’s a question of how you use it. Hers is based on power and success and conquering she doesn’t care what she has to do or who gets hurt in the process. In that way we’re very, very different.
