A barber lathers a man before he shaves him.
Dale Carnegie
Image
When two partners always agree, one of them is not necessary. If there is some point you haven't thought about, be thankful if it is brought to your attention.
Dale Carnegie
Image
There is a reason why the other man thinks and acts as he does. Ferret out that reason — and you have the key to his actions, perhaps to his personality. Try honestly to put yourself in his place.
Dale Carnegie
