No matter what accomplishments you make, somebody helped you. — © Althea Gibson
No matter what accomplishments you make, somebody helped you.
No matter what accomplishments you make, somebody helps you.
If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help... Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business - you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.

In the end, the extent of our own success will be measured by the accomplishments we have helped create in others.
You can't make somebody love you, no matter what you do to yourself. You can get implants, you can get all these procedures, thinking you will be more of a woman for that person. But it does not make a difference. If they don't love you, they won't no matter what you do to your appearance.
Faith means that it doesn't matter what happens. You can trust that somebody is watching. Trust that somebody will make it all right.
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
No matter what, people have to respect my accomplishments.

An author is somebody who writes a story. It doesn't matter if you're a kid or if you're a grown-up, it doesn't matter if the book gets published and lots of people get to read it, or if you make just one copy and you share that book with one friend.
When me and my author friends who write about other difficult subject matter... when you hear from teens daily saying, 'Your book helped me or made me understand a friend better, what somebody else is going through,' you see the positive things.
I run a bunch of charities and I say this line to people: 'I am somebody who has always been helped.' A little thing like that can make people believe it.
Chess is a great game. No matter how good one is, there is always somebody better. No matter how bad one is, there is always somebody worse.
I come from a world where accountability and accomplishments matter, and where titles and rhetoric take a back seat to results.
My father started with nothing and is a self-made man. No matter what I do with my life, I can never match his accomplishments.
Clint Eastwood is a very soft-spoken, humble guy, actually, which helped put somebody like me at ease, who had never worked with somebody as huge as that. I'm sure that's not always the case with legendary people.
