More quotes by Andrew Carnegie
All is well since all grows better
Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie
A sunny disposition is worth more than fortune.
Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie

Andrew Carnegie
And while the law of competition may be sometimes hard for the individual, it is best for the race, because it ensures the survival of the fittest in every department.
Andrew Carnegie
The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work.
Andrew Carnegie
Young man, make your name worth something.
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
There is very little success where there is very little laughter.
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
