Jawaharlal Nehru Quotes

I've, in so many ways, done way more than I ever expected out of life.

I have achieved everything that I ever wanted to accomplish in this game and more so, for me, I have been fulfilled.

What I have said to people is that I've lived the American dream, because I have.

You know what you have achieved and what you have been through.

Now, with all my world titles, I am very happy because I can say to all those people that what I chose to do was good for me.

There are some basic human needs that are the same. Everybody wants to succeed.

A successful life depends less on how long you live than on how much you can pack into the time you have.

A proper autobiography is a death-bed confession. A true man finds so much work to do that he has no time to contemplate his yesterdays; for to-day and to-morrow are here, with their impatient tasks. The world is so busy, too, that it cannot afford to study any man's unfinished work; for the end may prove it a failure, and the world needs masterpieces.

When I finally did stop and look at my life, I realized that I had done what I'd set out to do. In my pitiful little way, I had climbed the mountain I had chosen. And there I was, on top.

For the first time in my life, I'm proud of myself.

I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.

It is an everlasting desire to make my dreams come true. And it's getting to the point now where it's like, come on I want my dreams to come true so that I can get on with the rest of my life. Sometimes I think about the rest of my life when I'm done.

I have lived long enough both in years and in accomplishments.

Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.

I'm less worried about accomplishment - as younger people always can't help but be - and more concerned with spending my time well, spending time with my family, and reading, learning things.

In the end, I want to be able to say, 'My life was what I made it.'

Success must never be measured by how much money you have.

The ultimate of being successful is the luxury of giving yourself the time to do what you want to do.

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

Success is the maximum utilization of the ability that you have.

I think I've achieved everything I wanted to.

I've already exceeded my expectations for myself. I'm one of the most influential people! I mean come on! I wanted to be... I never thought the things I've experienced in my life, I didn't think that was the life that I was gonna get to live.

I feel as if I've been able to do so many things I never expected to do.

What you become is what counts.

Success is like reaching an important birthday and finding you're exactly the same.
