Know your value. Confidence breeds success. Act like the person you want to become, and people will start seeing you as that person.

Mark M. Ford

Don't seek to be a person of fame, for even villains can be famous. Instead, be a person of value. Fame fades but value is honored.

Sidney Mohede

Opportunity beckons more surely when misfortune comes upon a person than it ever does when that person is riding the crest of a wave of success. It sharpens a person's wits, if that person will let it, enabling him or her to see more clearly and evaluate situations with a more knowledgeable judgment.

Epictetus

We owe Christ to the world--to the least person and to the greatest person, to the richest person and to the poorest person, to the best person and to the worst person. We are in debt to the nations.

David Platt

Every person is created in the image of God and has value. Every person. Every person is to be treated with respect. Every person is also a citizen of some country. In their country, they have rights and responsibilities; in every other country, they are a guest.

James Lankford

There are two kinds of success. One is the rare kind that comes to the person who has the power to do what no one else has the power to do. That is genius. But the average person who wins what we call success is not a genius. That person is a man or woman who has merely the ordinary qualities that they share with their fellows, but has developed those ordinary qualities to a more than ordinary degree.

Theodore Roosevelt

There is no value with just one restaurant or with one person. The brand has to be bigger than the person.

Wolfgang Puck

Love is to recognize that the other person is a person, is precious, is important and has value.

Jean Vanier

Success: The successful person is willing to do what the unsuccessful person is not willing to do. Draw a profile of success in whatever you are choosing to improve. If you are willing to do what that profile demands, then you have a credible demand of success. If you are not willing to do that then it just will not be there for you. You can't have the one without the other.

Hyrum W. Smith

A person of character seeks true happiness in living a life of purpose and meaning, placing a higher value on significance than success.

Michael Josephson

A possession considered of little value up to now suddenly becomes precious to a person if another person desires it, don't you think?

Christa Wolf

As far as from a standpoint of success, the only person who is in a position to make a claim like that sort [for the 'King Of The South' title] would be Lil Wayne - as far as success from a numbers standpoint. As far as longevity and success, that's the only person I feel like can say that.

T.I.

A person’s first duty, a young person’s at any rate, is to be ambitious, and the noblest ambition is that of leaving behind something of permanent value.

G. H. Hardy

My definition of success is to be happy in what you like to do best. It's not a monetary value; it's an internal value in itself. If you're happy from the inside-out, thats what is important. Success comes as a day to day value or reaching a goal that you have, and you've got to prepare yourself for what's to come when success is there.
