Great Achievements Quotes

The generation which lived through the Second World War is disappearing. Post-war generations see Europe’s great achievements - liberty, peace and prosperity - as a given Picture Quote #1

I... began my career as a wireless amateur. After 43 years in radio, I do not mind confessing that I am still an amateur. Despite many great achievements in the science of radio and electronics, what we know today is far less than what we have still to learn Picture Quote #1

Death comes to all, but great achievements build a monument which shall endure until the sun grows cold Picture Quote #1

Though men are apt to flatter and exalt themselves with their great achievements, yet these are, in truth, very often owing not so much to design as chance Picture Quote #1

Not many of us will be leaders; and even those who are leaders must also be followers much of the time. This is the crucial role. Followers judge leaders. Only if the leaders pass that test do they have any impact. The potential followers, if their judgment is poor, have judged themselves. If the leader takes his or her followers to the goal, to great achievements, it is because the followers were capable of that kind of response Picture Quote #1

Why be an average person? All the great achievements of history have been made by strong individuals who refused to consult statistics or to listen to those who could prove convincingly that what they wanted to do, and in fact ultimately did do, was completely impossible Picture Quote #1

Human beings who leave behind them no great achievements, but only a series of small kindnesses, have not had wasted lives Picture Quote #1

It is not the clear-sighted who rule the world. Great achievements are accomplished in a blessed, warm fog Picture Quote #1

The great achievements of the past were the adventures of the past. Only the adventurous can understand the greatness of the past Picture Quote #1

We have either to progress or to degenerate. Our ancestors did great things in the past, but we have to grow into a fuller life and march beyond even their great achievements Picture Quote #1

Any great achievement is preceded by many difficulties and many lessons; great achievements are not possible without them Picture Quote #1

Many of the great achievements of the world were accomplished by tired and discouraged men who kept on working Picture Quote #1

We seem to be riding on the top of the highest mast of the tallest ship; and yet at the same time we know that nothing of this sort matters; love is not proved thus, nor great achievements completed thus; so that we sport with the moment and preen our feathers in it lightly Picture Quote #1

Every man aims at avoiding what causes him pain; the activities of government ultimately consist in the infliction of pain. All great achievements of mankind were the product of a spontaneous effort on the part of individuals; government substitutes coercion for voluntary action Picture Quote #1

Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day lead to great achievements gained slowly over time Picture Quote #1
