Image
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.

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.

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband, while a man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
Charles M. Schwab
Image
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.

Many of us think of salespeople as people travelling around with sample kits. Instead, we are all salesman, every day of our lives.

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

All successful employers are stalking men who will do the unusual, men who think, men who attract attention by performing more than is expected of them.
