Sympathy is something that shouldn't be bestowed upon the Yankees. Apparently it angers them.

When you've been raised in care rap music isn't just about guns and sexism. They're talking about real things you can hang on to problems of identity that you have sympathy with. It's not just about the music with rap: when I was in care it meant a whole lot more than that.

I have nothing but sympathy for the people who are forced to work with me. I'm better now at picking out those that want to play that game with me and those that don't.

I take people very seriously. People are all I take seriously in fact. Therefore I have nothing but sympathy for how people behave - and nothing but laughter to console them with.

I've always liked Saturn. But I also have some sympathy for Pluto because I heard it's been downgraded from a planet and I think it should remain a planet. Once you've given something planetary status it's kind of mean to take it away.

To all those who have suffered as a consequence of our troubled past I extend my sincere thoughts and deep sympathy. With the benefit of historical hindsight we can all see things which we would wish had been done differently or not at all.

To desire and expect nothing for oneself and to have profound sympathy for others is genuine holiness.

The cure for sorrow is to learn something.

I have sometimes been wildly despairingly acutely miserable racked with sorrow but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

Only by joy and sorrow does a person know anything about themselves and their destiny. They learn what to do and what to avoid.

You can take Elvis. You can take Marilyn Monroe. Success and fame will not be the answer if something inside of you is bothering you if things in your mind aren't going right.

Fame and success are very different things.

Nothing good comes in life or athletics unless a lot of hard work has preceded the effort. Only temporary success is achieved by taking short cuts.

I think that everything you do helps you to write if you're a writer. Adversity and success both contribute largely to making you what you are. If you don't experience either one of those you're being deprived of something.

Success in whatever form it takes is a tricky thing - once you've achieved your goal then what? Where do you aim?

Success comes to a writer as a rule so gradually that it is always something of a shock to him to look back and realize the heights to which he has climbed.

Well I believe that the depth of your struggle can determine the height of your success. I was inspired to come out of everything I've been through and end up in a place where I never thought that I would be.

Nothing fails like success nothing is so defeated as yesterday's triumphant Cause.

Women face enough pressures and challenges in a workplace that is still depressingly biased against a female's success. Add to that the fact that the very thing many women I know find most rewarding (having kids) is now frowned upon.

It's hard for children's authors to be accepted when they try to write adult books. J.K. Rowling is the exception because people are so eager to read anything by her but it took Judy Blume three or four tries before she had a success.

For me I don't feel it is a success in the career to be the pretty woman career success comes from being characters who tell us something about the truth.

There's nothing so aphrodisiacal for a woman as money and success.

You may lose your wife you may lose your dog your mother may hate you. None of those things matter. What matters is that you achieve success and become free. Then you can do whatever you like.

Happy people are ignoramuses and glory is nothing else but success and to achieve it one only has to be cunning.
