More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Nothing else so inspires and heartens people as words of appreciation. You and I may soon forger the words of encouragement and appreciation that we utter now, but the person to whom we have spoken them may treasure them and repeat them to themselves over a lifetime
Dale Carnegie
Self-expression is the dominant necessity of human nature.
Dale Carnegie
If we think happy thoughts, we will be happy. If we think miserable thoughts, we will be miserable.
Dale Carnegie
Happiness doesn't depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude.
Dale Carnegie
We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do. It's only when necessity faces us that we rise to the occasion and actually do the things that hitherto have seemed impossible.
Dale Carnegie
STOP AND LOOK out the window and see how beautiful the world is. It is there-enjoy it. Go out tonight and look up at the stars. They are the wonders of nature
Dale Carnegie
Act enthusiastic and you will be enthusiastic.
Dale Carnegie
One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.
Dale Carnegie
Today is life-the only life you are sure of. Make the most of today.
Dale Carnegie
Appreciation is the legal tender that all souls enjoy.
Dale Carnegie
The difference between appreciation and flattery? That is simple. One is sincere and the other insincere. One comes from the heart out the other from the teeth out. One is unselfish the other selfish. One is universally admired the other universally condemned.
Dale Carnegie
When dealing with people, let us remember that we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bristling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity. ...Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain - and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.
Dale Carnegie
Today is the only time we can possibly live.
Dale Carnegie
It never hurts a fool to appear before an audience, for his capacity is not a capacity for feeling.
Dale Carnegie
Stop worrying and start living.
Dale Carnegie
Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt. Relevant detail, couched in concrete, colorful language, is the best way to recreate the incident as it happened and to picture it for the audience.
Dale Carnegie
The thing is to get the work done.
Dale Carnegie
One of the surest ways of making a friend and influencing the opinion of another is to give consideration to [his or her] opinion, let [him or her] sustain a feeling of importance.
Dale Carnegie
If you tell me how you get your feeling of importance, I'll tell you what you are.
Dale Carnegie
People aren't interested in you. They're interested in themselves
