More quotes by Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie
Whatever I engage in, I must push inordinately.
Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie
Every man gravitates to where he belongs in life, just as surely as water seeks and finds its level. His position is measured precisely by the quality and quantity of the service he renders, plus the mental attitude with which he relates himself to other people.
Andrew Carnegie
Touch his head, and he will bargain and argue with you to the last Touch his heart, and he falls upon your breast.
Andrew Carnegie
The rare individuals who unselfishly try to serve others have an enormous advantage-they have little competition.
Andrew Carnegie
The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work. The world takes off its hat to those who put in more than 50% of their capacity, and stands on its head for those few and far between souls who devote 100%.
Andrew Carnegie
Speculation is a parasite feeding upon values, creating none.
Andrew Carnegie
One great cause of failure of young men in business is lack of concentration.
Andrew Carnegie
Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!
Andrew Carnegie
He that cannot reason is a fool.
Andrew Carnegie
