More quotes by Charles M. Schwab
Spending creates more wealth for everybody.
Charles M. Schwab
Young men may enjoy dropping their work at five or six o'clock and slipping into a dress suit for an evening of pleasure but the habit has certain drawbacks.
Charles M. Schwab
I thought and dreamed of nothing else but the steel works.
Charles M. Schwab
Every one's got it in him, if he'll only make up his mind and stick at it. None of us is born with a stop-valve on his powers or with a set limit to his capacities, There's no limit possible to the expansion of each one of us.
Charles M. Schwab
The man who has done his best has done everything. The man who has done less than his best has done nothing.
Charles M. Schwab
Personality is to a man what perfume is to a flower.
Charles M. Schwab
In my wide association in life, meeting with many and great men in various parts of the world, I have yet to find the man, however great or exalted his station, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than he would ever do under a spirit of criticism.
Charles M. Schwab
Don't be afraid of imperilling your health by giving a few extra hours to the company that pays your salary!
Charles M. Schwab
Work hard. Hard work is the best investment a man can make.
Charles M. Schwab
The man who attracts attention is the man who is thinking all the time, and expressing himself in little ways. It is not the man who tries to dazzle his employer by doing the theatrical, the spectacular.
Charles M. Schwab
Good morning! Remember: A person can succeed at almost anything for which they have unlimited enthusiasm.
Charles M. Schwab
Looking to the future I see in the further acceleration of science continuous jobs for our workers. Science will cure unemployment.
Charles M. Schwab
Many of us think of salespeople as people travelling around with sample kits. Instead, we are all salesman, every day of our lives.
Charles M. Schwab
Most talk about 'super-geniuses' is nonsense. I have found that when 'stars' drop out, successors are usually at hand to fill their places, and the successors are merely men who have learned by application and self-discipline to get full production from an average, normal brain.
Charles M. Schwab
I disagreed with Carnegie's ideas on how best to distribute his wealth. I spent mine!
Charles M. Schwab
The first essential in a boy's career is to find out what he's fitted for, what he's most capable of doing and doing with a relish.
Charles M. Schwab
What we must seek is a plan by which the men will receive high wages when the employers are receiving high prices for the product.
Charles M. Schwab
A factory can be closed down, its chimneys smokeless, waiting for the worker to come back to his job, and all will be peaceful. But the moment workers are imported, and the striker sees his own place usurped, there is bound to be trouble.
Charles M. Schwab
The difference between getting somewhere and nowhere is the courage to make an early start. The fellow who sits still and does just what he is told will never be told to do big things.
Charles M. Schwab
There is not a man in power at our Bethlehem steel works today who did not begin at the bottom and work his way up.
Charles M. Schwab
