  1. Ach ja, erfolgreich sollte ich sein, hat sie gesagt. “Da hast du doch nichts davon, wenn du weiter vor dich hinkriepelst, du musst doch die Sachen auch mal anpacken. Wenn nicht jetzt, wann dann? Wenn nicht heute, wirst du es dann morgen wagen? Übermorgen? Oder nie? Es ist _dein_ Leben. Dein einziges möglicherweise!”

  12. Success is awesome. I think that every one would like to succeed in every thing they do. I love to succeed because it gives me a feeling that I can do anything. My dad says that the most important thing to succeed in is school because if you don’t do well in school you don’t make it very far in life. For most people. I agree with my dad because my dad was good in school and he has a very successful life.

  35. Greg took a deep breath, then ploughed on with his task- this was a mighty exertion, the power from his legs tearing gouges in the soil as he pushed with every morsel of his existence. This was some heavy shit, but Greg was the Dung beetle for the job- in fact his colleague had a affectionate ditty to his success in the muckiest of predicaments- “when the shit rolls down, you better get Greg in” , which they sang to a long forgotten cypress hill tune.

  37. Her last expedition was not a success.
    Not the kind of success that she’d hoped for, anyway.
    She’d made her way into the world of Men – hesitantly, like a bashful fawn foraging through the woods, prodding the strange and exotic things she found along the way with a wet nose – but her only success was in drawing unwanted attention from undesirable Men.
