Success Revisited

A few weeks ago I asked the question, "What is Success?"  A few people answered with their definition... thank you guys for your interaction!

I wanted to revisit the topic over the next few days, starting today with some success quotes of compiled.  Read a few of them, see if anything resonates with you, and if so, feel free to share what's on your mind.

I have a lot to say on the subject of success, I've spent a lot of time thinking about it over the last 10 years of my life.  So towards the end of the week, I'll share my thoughts with you guys... but for now, read some quotes!
