"If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own! I’m always struck by people who think, “Well, it must be ‘cause I was just so smart!” There are a lot of smart people out there. “It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.” Let me tell you something: There are a whole bunch of hardworkin’ people out there. If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help."
