For me, I know that people always expect me to be perfect, so when I'm not perfect, it's really frustrating. I'm really hard on myself and want things to work out right away.

When I work, I work very hard. So I look to work with people who have that level of dedication. And I depend on that from everyone. From the director to my crews that I work with.

No man ever got very high by pulling other people down. The intelligent merchant does not knock his competitors. The sensible worker does not knock those who work with him. Don't knock your friends. Don't knock your enemies. Don't knock yourself.

People intoxicate themselves with work so they won't see how they really are.

Young people are threatened... by the evil use of advertising techniques that stimulate the natural inclination to avoid hard work by promising the immediate satisfaction of every desire.

Some people say video games rot your brain, but I think they work different muscles that maybe you don't normally use.

A lot of people mistake habit for hard work. Doing something over and over again is not working hard.

I'm Italian, but some people think I'm Jewish because I work the Yiddish. I also work the Italian, by the way.

The kind of people that all teams need are people who are humble, hungry, and smart: humble being little ego, focusing more on their teammates than on themselves. Hungry, meaning they have a strong work ethic, are determined to get things done, and contribute any way they can. Smart, meaning not intellectually smart but inner personally smart.

People might not get all they work for in this world, but they must certainly work for all they get.

The richest people in the world look for and build networks; everyone else looks for work.

It's not easy to work with me, I recognize that. It's not easy if those people aren't as perfectionistic as I am.

There may be people who have more talent than you, but there's no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do - and I believe that.

There are two kinds of people, those who do the work and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group; there is less competition there.

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

Being an astronaut is a wonderful career. I feel very privileged. But what I really hope for young people is that they find a career they're passionate about, something that's challenging and worthwhile.

People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.

The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually goes around wearing overalls looking like hard work.

When more and more people are thrown out of work, unemployment results.

You know, I think the greatest gift in the world is a good employee, you know, or people who can do your work for you and do it well the way you'd like to have it done. And I've always been able to surround myself with really good people.

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

Instead of being critical of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you're not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and appreciation!

Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all.

Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them.
