Quotes by Ben Stein

The following are quotes from Ben Stein:

It is inevitable that some defeat will enter even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated...it is finished when it surrenders.

Nothing happens by itself... it all will come your way, once you understand that you have to make it come your way, by your own exertions.

The human spirit needs to accomplish, to achieve, to triumph to be happy.

The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this decide what you want.

There is no sudden leap into the stratosphere... There is only advancing step by step, slowly and tortuously, up the pyramid towards your goals....

You can do what you think you can do and you cannot do what you think you cannot.
