Behind every successful man there's a lot of unsuccessful years.

A rationalist, as I use the word, is a man who attempts to reach decisions by argument and perhaps, in certain cases, by compromise, rather than by violence. He is a man who would rather be unsuccessful in convincing another man by argument than successful in crushing him by force, by intimidation and threats, or even by persuasive propaganda.

Successful men are defined by thier actions;
Unsuccessful men are defined by actions not taken.
Successful
Some folks say success is all about money.
Well if that's the case
I'm a failure honey.
I've got a few dollars
saved up for bad times
but none of them came
from committin' any crimes.
Now Mr Jones is successful.
He drives a big car.
He has a fancy house and boat
and every 4 years he wants my vote.
But I guess he's successful
'cause he's got lots of money.
I read in the papers
Mr. Jones is dyin'
but surely they can fix him
with all that money.
'Cause he's successful,
Isn't he honey?

Our popular Government has often been called an experiment. Two points in it our people have already settled — the successful establishing and the successful administering of it. One still remains — its successful maintenance against a formidable internal attempt to overthrow it. It is now for them to demonstrate to the world that those who can fairly carry an election can also suppress a rebellion; that ballots are the rightful and peaceful successors of bullets, and that when ballots have fairly and constitutionally decided there can be no successful appeal back to bullets; that there can be no successful appeal except to ballots themselves at succeeding elections. Such will be a great lesson of peace, teaching men that what they can not take by an election neither can they take it by a war; teaching all the folly of being the beginners of a war.

Thirteen Years
Thirteen years of pencils and paper
Thirteen years of “I'll do it later”
Thirteen years of homework and classes
Thirteen years of fails and passes
Thirteen years have gone by so fast
And it's finally our year of last
Thirteen years of enemies and friends
Our memories that will never end
Thirteen years of growing up
Relying off of chance and luck
Changing our hair and our clothes
Making our decisions based off shows
Thirteen years preparing for our lives
For our future successful tries
For our almost guaranteed mistakes
And the friends we are sure to make
Thirteen years and now thirteen more
Traveling from shore to shore
Separating from our family and friends
Moving on and on again and again
Good Luck to us all, wherever we go
May we always have pride, and let it show
For our origins of HHS
Class of 2011 will always be the best!

They're equally good
Successful men make lousy husbands;
Successful women make lousy mothers.
Husbands and wives tending their families
Are equally successful people.

World is Wonderful for Successful
The world is wonderful
Only for those who are successful
So have stress
On sure success
Have access to successful man
Search for them do some scan
To ward off stress
And so called depression
From this life-stressful
Have a goal
Do dream
Drive in success stream
Do if you can do the best
Leave the rest
Have a complete plan
And a system to scan
Only then you will be a successful man
