Abhimanyu Singh Quotes

It meant as much to me as winning the Oscar.

I want to make my family proud as much as possible.

Making my family, friends, and close peers proud of me is the most important thing.

My whole life, I've been trying to make people proud.

I always wanted to make my parents feel proud of me.

I want to make my wife proud, I want to make my dad proud.

It really hit home that my parents felt as though they didn't have to worry anymore. They realized if you could win an Oscar, that was a good sign.

Having your work honored nationally is a great morale booster.

I do not equate productivity to happiness. For most people, happiness in life is a massive amount of achievement plus a massive amount of appreciation. And you need both of those things.

It's dead nice to know I've achieved something.

It's nice to walk into a club and see your picture. Then you know you've done something good.

Success without honor is an unseasoned dish; it will satisfy your hunger, but it won't taste good.

A lot of people say this honor validates my career, but I didn't work hard for validation.

Being named among the best at something is special and beautiful. But if there are no titles, nothing is won.

Awards are wonderful. I've been nominated many times and I've won many awards. But my journey is not towards that. If it happens it will be a blast. If it doesn't, it's still been a blast.

Awards are not something that I measure my work by. I've been so fortunate and I've gotten to do such terrific things that it seems petty to look back and say, 'Oh, I should have gotten that prize.' I don't look at it that way.

I want to do something that people can really say, 'Hey, man, that was good, I'm proud of you, I'm proud of that.' 'Pride' and 'Transformers' and things like that.

As for me, prizes are nothing. My prize is my work.

I know the Hall of Fame is the more sought-after thing. But I'm getting a bigger charge out of my uniform number being put away. Everything I worked hard for and wished for came true.

I've been a very lucky guy. I played on championship teams. I played for Canada. I've won some awards and I'm very proud of those accomplishments. But I don't think there's anything greater than to come home and to be recognized at home. This is the pinnacle.

I think I'm proudest of making my parents proud.

Awards mean absolutely nothing if you don't get it. If you do get it, they're the best thing in the world.

Success is a completely abstract thing - it has no bearing on daily life, family matters, the matter of artistic creation, but it can affect grace, and if I lose that, I really have gained nothing from success.

An Oscar clears the deck of envy and resentment. You think, 'Well, I've got that. I can relax now.'

I'd be lying if I said the success means nothing to me. It does. I enjoy it and live a pretty great life.
