"Kids are meant to believe that their stepping stone to massive money is 'The X Factor.' Luck is great, but most of life is hard work. We do not celebrate people who have made success out of serious hard work."

Iain Duncan Smith on Success

More quotes about Success

  • "In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure."

    Bill Cosby on Success

  • "Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success."

    Swami Vivekananda on Success

  • "Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it."

    Bruce Lee on Success

    Winston Churchill on Success

More quotes by Iain Duncan Smith

  • "My view is pensioners don't have the one option that people of working age have. They can't really increase their income, because they are no longer able to work."

  • "Work is transformative. It gives you a greater chance of a greater income. You can affect your life while you're of working age, so you have scope and opportunity. Pensioners do not."

  • "For families across the UK who are income-poor, but more than that, whose lives are blighted by worklessness, educational failure, family breakdown, problem debt and poor health, as well as other problems, giving them an extra pound - say through increased benefits - will not address the reason they find themselves in difficulty in the first place."

  • "The future of Conservatism lies in our beliefs and values, not by throwing them away. We need to shed associations that bind us to past failures, but hold faith with those things that make us Conservatives."

  • "When families are strong and stable, so are children - showing higher levels of wellbeing and more positive outcomes. But when things go wrong - either through family breakdown or a damaged parental relationship - the impact on a child's later life can be devastating."
