There were periods of my life when a lot of people didn't believe in me. I still had faith in myself. I really had to ask myself life questions. Where do I see myself in five years? Create a ladder for yourself, and walk up the steps. Climb that ladder.

Fergie

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm, or the gods, or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.

George R. R. Martin

Climb up the ladder! Climb up the ladder! Are you stupid?!

CM Punk

When you got a dream, you don't just climb half way up the ladder, you climb all the way to the top

Cher Lloyd

As Republicans, our first concern is for those waiting tonight to begin or resume the climb up life's ladder.

Mitch Daniels

Guarding knowledge is not a good way to understand. Understanding means to throw away your knowledge. You have to be able to transcend your knowledge the way people climb a ladder. If you are on the fifth step of a ladder and think that you are very high, there is no hope for you to climb to the sixth.

Nhat Hanh

Better to be at the bottom of a ladder you want to climb than in the middle of some ladder you don’t, right?

Dave Eggers

With regard to philosophical metaphysics, I always see increasing numbers who have attained to the negative goal, but as yet few who climb a few rungs backwards; one ought to look out, perhaps, over the last steps of the ladder, but not try to stand upon them.

Friedrich Nietzsche

However, for the man who studies to gain insight, books and studies are merely rungs of the ladder on which he climbs to the summit of knowledge. As soon as a rung has raised him up one step, he leaves it behind. On the other hand, the many who study in order to fill their memory do not use the rungs of the ladder for climbing, but take them off and load themselves with them to take away, rejoicing at the increasing weight of the burden. They remain below forever, because they bear what should have bourne them.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Frightened, I jump up from the bank, the struggle begins anew. Bitterness has returned. I am not Pan in the reed, I am merely a human being and want to climb a few steps, but really climb them.

Paul Klee

On one level, we're on Matador, but our amps still might explode on stage, or they'll be an echo in the mic. It's like climbing a ladder. I like to climb it really slowly. I could probably get really professional right away, but I like to take baby steps and find my own way.

Kurt Vile

I got stuck up a tree when I was about seven, and my dad had to come and get the ladder to get me down. I loved to climb all the way up to the top. I must have been a koala in my past life.

Miranda Kerr

I do think that what's wonderful in life is that we gain perspective as we take on different roles that are mind and heart opening.

Uma Thurman

When you are going up the corporate ladder or the government ladder, you have to take some risk.

Condoleezza Rice

You cannot push any one up a ladder unless he be willing to climb a little himself.

Andrew Carnegie

If I am going up a ladder, and a dog begins to bite at my ankles, I can do one of two things - either turn round and kick out at the it, or simply go on up the ladder. I prefer to go up the ladder!

Maria Montessori
