One press account said I was an overnight success. I thought that was the longest night I've ever spent.
Anyone who wants to sell you overnight success or wealth is not interested in your success; they are interested in your money.
My dad told me, 'It takes fifteen years to be an overnight success', and it took me seventeen and a half years.
There are a lot of people who dream of overnight success, of being Brad Pitt getting discovered for 'Thelma and Louise,' but that doesn't always happen. I represent that stick-to-it-ness that it takes to build a career over time, guest spot by guest spot. Looking back from here, I wouldn't have wanted the journey to go any other way.
Some say I'm an overnight success. Well, that was a very long night that lasted about 10 years. But while I do, of course, now feel the pressure having had books that have been very successful, I just know I have to concentrate on writing for myself. I can't worry about genres or markets or what might be commercial or not. That never works.
Give me a couple of years, and I'll make that actress an overnight success.
I worked half my life to be an overnight success, and still it took me by surprise.
Everyone else trains just as hard as well and that there really is no such a thing as overnight success.
In the digital age of 'overnight' success stories such as Facebook, the hard slog is easily overlooked.
I worked 18 years to become an overnight success. Now MagicPlace.com will short circuit that process for people.
