Andrew Carnegie
The first man gets the oyster, the second man gets the shell.
Andrew Carnegie
There is not such a cradle of democracy upon the earth as the Free Public Library, this republic of letters, where neither rank, office, nor wealth receives the slightest consideration.
Andrew Carnegie
There is no use whatsoever in trying to help people who do not help themselves.
Andrew Carnegie
