More quotes by 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
I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
Andrew Carnegie
If thou dost not sow, thou shalt not reap.
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
The older I get the less I listen to what people say and the more I look at what they do.
Andrew Carnegie
The man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was his to administer during his life, will pass away unwept, unhonoured and insung no matter to what uses he leaves the dross which he cannot take with him.
Andrew Carnegie
Life is not so much a matter of position as of disposition.
Andrew Carnegie
TEAMWORK: the fuel that allows common people attain uncommon results.
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
Not evil, but good, has come to the race from the accumulation of wealth by those who have the ability and energy that produce it.
Andrew Carnegie
A word, a look, an accent, may affect the destiny not only of individuals, but of nations. He is a bold man who calls anything a trifle.
Andrew Carnegie
No man can become rich without himself enriching others
Andrew Carnegie
Show me a man of average ability but extraordinary desire and I'll show you a winner every time.
Andrew Carnegie
Strength is derived from unity. The range of our collective vision is far greater when individual insights become one.
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
Golf is an indispensable adjunct to high civilisation.
Andrew Carnegie
I have had a long, long life full of troubles, but there is one curious fact about them-nine-tenths of them never happened.
Andrew Carnegie
That 95 per cent. fail of those who start in business upon their own account seems incredible, and yet such are said to be the statistics upon the subject.
Andrew Carnegie
The public only knows one side of [Mark Mark Twain] - the amusing part. Little does it suspect that he was a man of strong convictions upon political and social questions and a moralist of no mean order.
Andrew Carnegie
Teamwork appears most effective if each individual helps others to succeed, increasing the synergy of that team ideally, every person will contribute different skills to increase the efficiency of the team and develop its unity.
Andrew Carnegie
