"My endeavorsHave ever come too short of..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“Things are often spoke and seldom meant.”

“Teach me, dear creature, how to think and speak; Lay open to my earthy-gross conceit, Smother'd in errors, feeble, shallow, weak, The folded meaning of your words' deceit.”

“I feel it gone, yet know not when it left.”

“That's basically what the drive is: "I want to be famous, I want to be noticed, and I want to be approved of." That's basically what you're after. "Give me attention, give me applause, give me an audience. A. A. A. Straight As." That's all you're looking for.”

“I worked hard all my life as far as this music business. I dreamed of the day when I could go to New York and feel comfortable and they could come out here and be comfortable.”

“Yes the truth is that men's ambition and their desire to make money are among the most frequent causes of deliberate acts of injustice.”

“Unused ability, like unused muscles, will atrophy.”

“Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones.”

“Ability is not something to be saved, like money, in the hope that you can draw interest on it. The interest comes from the spending. Unused ability, like unused muscles, will atrophy. It is tragic to realize that the majority of human beings, even the so-called educated, call upon only the smallest fraction of their potential capacity. They leave many talents dormant. They fail to develop their mental qualities. They are almost unaware of the degree of energy upon which they might call to build a full and rewarding life.”
