Alexander Pope
An excuse is worse and more terrible than a lie; for an excuse is a lie guarded.
|
Art Turock
There's a difference between interest and commitment. When you're interested in doing something, you do it only when circumstance permit. When you're committed to something, you accept no excuses, only results.
|
Benjamin Franklin
I never knew a man who was good at making excuses who was good at anything else.
|
Benjamin Franklin
He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.
|
Catherine Pulsifer
Sometimes, people use age as a convenient excuse. 'I'm to old too start something new', or, 'I couldn't learn that at my age.' Other people, though, go on to acheive their greatest accomplishments in life in later years.

Don Wilder
Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure.
|
Eric Hoffer
For many people, an excuse is better than an achievement because an achievement, no matter how great, leaves you having to prove yourself again in the future but an excuse can last for life.
|
Francois La Rochefoucauld
Nothing is impossible; there are ways that lead to everything, and if we had sufficient will we should always have sufficient means. It is often merely for an excuse that we say things are impossible.
|
George Bernard Shaw
People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.
|
George W. Carver
Niney-nine percent of failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
|
Proverb
A bad workman always blames his tools.
|
Rudyard Kipling
We have forty million reasons for failure, but not a single excuse.
|
William Ward
It is wise to direct your anger towards problems - not people; to focus your energies on answers - not excuses.
