Your views on success?
Whatever you achieve, you look up to find the real prize has scuttled a little further out of reach. Best to take it all with a large scoop of salt and remember that nobody cares too much about your success or failure except yourself, the people who truly love you – and your mortal enemies. I find this sobering.
