Best opportunity & successful Quotes | Short & Famous Sayings

“Young men keep telling me they don't 'have it all' either. And they may have a point. But if you define 'having it all' as the opportunity to have a successful career and a family, I'd say this.

Stop thinking of sleep and naps as “downtime” or as a “waste of time.” Think of them as opportunities for memory consolidation and enhancing the brain circuits that help skill learning.

“Neil [Simon] was considered our greatest [living playwright] at the time [of their marriage]. Maybe he still is; I don't know.

He didn't want me to go away so much.

I took what I might call a U-turn.”

Life is hard. Take advantage of your opportunities.”

Of finances we will not even speak; it is too sad a tale.”
