More quotes by 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
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
Lead the life that will make you kindly and friendly to everyone about you, and you will be surprised what a happy life you will lead.

Charles M. Schwab

Charles M. Schwab
Personality is to a man what perfume is to a flower.
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
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 real test of business greatness is in giving opportunity to others.
Charles M. Schwab
Bare hands grip success better than kid gloves.
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
One of the most successful men I have known never carried a watch until he began to earn ten thousand dollars a year.
