Sara Pascoe Quotes

There is a serious defect in the thinking of someone who wants - more than anything else - to become rich. As long as they don't have the money, it'll seem like a worthwhile goal. Once they do, they'll understand how important other things are - and have always been.

You see, money isn't everything - I know it sounds corny but I really mean it - success means a lot more.

Nothing will stifle your human evolution more than fame and fortune.

I always want more. I will always want to earn more.

For me, success isn't even about money. It's about getting to do what you love and supporting yourself. Everything that comes after that is bonus, unless your only goal is to be rich. If that's your goal, you're going to find out that once you have a little bit, you want a lot. Then once you have a lot, you want a lot more.

After a certain point, money is meaningless. It ceases to be the goal. The game is what counts.

What is wealth? A dream of fools.

Work hard, earn a great living, get whatever you want out of life, have all the stuff you want. But there should be a ceiling on it-enough is enough!

Success and money can really be quite blinding.

I've been very lucky to have achieved a lot of the things that I dreamt of achieving as a young man. But, at the end of the day - and I truly believe this - it is not about achieving great wealth or success. Because they don't bring happiness, ultimately.

People get content - they buy their house, their cars, their grills, and they get comfortable. But I'm not here to be hot for a year.

When I was a lad, my parents and all their equivalents never lusted after other people's riches or success.

I was never carried away by success and have learnt from the failures. Satisfaction is what I crave for; fame and wealth are just by-products.

I'm not greedy at all. Sometimes I pinch myself because of what I've got.

At 25, my idea of success may have been more vain, like, "I'll be good the day that there's $20 million in my account and I have this particular house and the wife and 2.5 kids." But at 40 - and I know it's kind of silly telling you guys this - but as long as my Metacritic rating stays above 80, that's all I care about.

The quest for glory can never be satisfied, it must be extinguished.

Satisfaction, for us, is only a brief thing. The man who acquires wealth does not reach a point where he has enough. Success for us is more like acceleration than speed. Interest cannot be maintained at a constant level.

Money doesn't drive me.

It's a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.

People need to realise what real happiness and success is, because success as an actor is fleeting. You can be up there one day and gone the next.

I have a lot of success and make a good living, but after while, you start going 'Why? Why are you doing all this?'

My whole life, I've wanted things before I was ready. I was always pushing for the next job, the next success. I was so focused on achieving and the path that I was missing some great point about life.

All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

As a teenager, rather than setting myself on a course to pursue fame (quite common growing up in L.A., the entertainment capital of the world), happiness, fulfillment, and spiritual enlightenment (also quite common), I skipped right on to trying to be successful. 'Let's just get on with it,' I felt. 'Onward' became my motto.
