More quotes by Arianna Huffington
Our current obsession with creativity is the result of our continued striving for immortality in an era when most people no longer believe in an afterlife.
Arianna Huffington
Creating the culture of burnout is opposite to creating a culture of sustainable creativity. This is something that needs to be taught in business schools. This mentality needs to be introduced as a leadership and performance-enhancing tool.
Arianna Huffington
There's no love more intense than the love we have for our kids - and where there is intense love, there is also intense fear lurking beneath the surface.
Arianna Huffington
I usually start with a big question, such as whether people today are happier than in the past, or why men have dominated women in most human societies. And then I follow the question instead of trying to follow my own answer, even if it means I can't formulate any clear theory.
Arianna Huffington
Failure is not the opposite to success, it's a stepping stone to success. If our primary goal is to be approved of, then we are not going to take risks, we are not going to speak out, we are going to try to blend in.
Arianna Huffington
Given the multiple crises we are living through, investigative journalism is all the more important.
Arianna Huffington
We all have within us the ability to move from struggle to grace.
Arianna Huffington
Never make decisions from a place of lack.
Arianna Huffington
I don't like the idea of [having] a thick skin. I think we [should] be more childlike.
Arianna Huffington
Often, you'll fail. But, as my mother also taught me, failure isn't the opposite of success - it's a stepping stone to success.
Arianna Huffington
I failed, many times in my life. One failure that I always remember was when my second book was rejected by 36 publishers. Many years later, I watched HuffPost come alive
Arianna Huffington
Trying to be Supermom is as futile as trying to be Perfect Mom. Not going to happen.
Arianna Huffington
We need to accept that we won't always make the right decisions, that we'll screw up royally sometimes - understanding that failure is not the opposite of success, it's part of success.
Arianna Huffington
There may be no single thing that can teach us more about life than death.
Arianna Huffington
By any sane definition of success, if you wake up in a pool of blood and nobody has shot you, you are not successful.
Arianna Huffington
There is a purpose to our lives, even if it is sometimes hidden from us, and even if the biggest turning points and heartbreaks only make sense as we look back, rather than as we are experiencing them. So we might as well live life as if - as the poet Rumi put it - everything is rigged in our favor.
Arianna Huffington
Moving ourselves to the background and others to the foreground is evidence that the (spiritual) search is achieving its purpose.
Arianna Huffington
I think people are attracted to The Huffington Post's blend of up-to-the-second news and thoughtful opinion, delivered with an attitude. Plus, I think they enjoy that we cover so many different things - from politics and entertainment to style and satire. There is always something interesting to read and think about - and even to laugh at.
Arianna Huffington
The more fearless we are in our personal lives, the more of that spirit we'll bring to changing our world.
Arianna Huffington
I started asking the big questions that I had asked in college, that my compatriots the Greek philosophers had asked, like 'what is a good life?' Socrates famously said that 'The unexamined life is not worth living.' I started asking these questions from the starting point of 'what is success?'
