Malcolm Forbes
Failure is success if we learn from it.
Malcolm Forbes

Malcolm Forbes
Money isn't everything as long as you have enough.

Malcolm Forbes
SM is an abbreviation of both stock market and sadomasochism-- and there are those who think they are one and the same.
Malcolm Forbes
It's great to arrive, but the trip's most always most of the fun.
Malcolm Forbes
Wars almost never end the way starters had in mind.
Malcolm Forbes
When those with ability at their job get to thinking they can't be done without, they're already on their way out.
Malcolm Forbes
To live your life in the fear of losing it is to lose the point of life.
Malcolm Forbes
Working at what you enjoy is far more important than what you're working at.
