More quotes by Andrew Carnegie
Do not think a man has done his full duty when he has performed the work assigned him. A man will never rise if he does only this. Promotion comes from exceptional work.
Andrew Carnegie
Upon the sacredness of property civilization itself depends-the right of the laborer to his hundred dollars in the savings bank, and equally the legal right of the millionaire to his millions.
Andrew Carnegie
Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.
Andrew Carnegie
I resolved to stop accumulating and begin the infinitely more serious and difficult task of wise distribution.
Andrew Carnegie
The Republic may not give wealth or happiness, she has not promised these. It is the freedom to pursue these, not their realization, we can claim.
Andrew Carnegie
Nothing tells in the long run like a good judgment, and no sound judgment can remain with the man whose mind is disturbed by the mercurial changes of the stock exchange. It places him under an influence akin to intoxication. What is not, he sees, and what he sees, is not.
Andrew Carnegie
If thou dost not sow, thou shalt not reap.
Andrew Carnegie
The only irreplaceable capital an organization possesses is the knowledge and ability of its people. The productivity of that capital depends on how effectively people share their competence with those who can use it.
Andrew Carnegie
Pittsburgh entered the core of my heart when I was a boy and cannot be torn out.
Andrew Carnegie
I give money for church organs in the hope the organ music will distract the congregation's attention from the rest of the service.
Andrew Carnegie
Life is not so much a matter of position as of disposition.
Andrew Carnegie
Pioneering don't pay.
Andrew Carnegie
And there is no use whatever, gentlemen, trying to help people who do not help themselves. You cannot push any one up a ladder unless he be willing to climb a little himself.
Andrew Carnegie
I spent the first half of my life making money and the second half of my life giving it away to do the most good and the least harm.
Andrew Carnegie
The sound rule in business is that you may give money freely when you have a surplus, but your name never-neither as endorser nor as member of a corporation with individual liability
Andrew Carnegie
Do not look for approval except for the consciousness of doing your best.
Andrew Carnegie
The 'morality of compromise' sounds contradictory. Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat. Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.
Andrew Carnegie
Take away my people, but leave my factories and soon grass will grow on the factory floors......Take away my factories, but leave my people and soon we will have a new and better factory.
Andrew Carnegie
There are two types of people who never achieve very much in their lifetimes. One is the person who won't do what he or she is told to do, and the other is the person who does no more than he or she is told to do.
Andrew Carnegie
Do your duty and a little more and the future will take care of itself.
Andrew Carnegie
