Dale Carnegie
There are four ways, and only four ways, in which we have contact with the world. We are evaluated and classified by these four contacts: what we do, how we look, what we say, and how we say it.
Dale Carnegie
Even god doesn't propose to judge a man till his last days, why should you and I?
Dale Carnegie
