More quotes by Dale Carnegie
Success in dealing with people depends on sympathetic grasp of the other person's viewpoint.
Dale Carnegie
It isn’t what you have or who you are or where you are or what you’re doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It’s what you think of it. Two people may in the same place doing the same thing, and yet one may be miserable and the other happy. Why? Because of a different mental attitude.
Dale Carnegie
Keep your mind open to change all the time. Welcome it. Court it. It is only by examining and reexamining your opinions and ideas that you can progress.
Dale Carnegie

Dale Carnegie
Don't you have much more faith in ideas that you discover for yourself than in ideas that are handed to you on a silver platter?
Dale Carnegie
It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.
Dale Carnegie
How often we all have heard speakers begin by calling the attention of the audience to their lack of preparation or lack of ability. If you are not prepared, the audience will probably discover it without your assistance.
Dale Carnegie
Actions speak louder than words, and a smile says, ‘I like you. You make me happy. I am glad to see you.
Dale Carnegie
Life truly is a boomerang. What you give, you get.
Dale Carnegie
You are something new in this world. Never before, since the beginning of time, has there ever been anybody exactly like you and never again throughout all the ages to come will there ever be anybody exactly like you again.
Dale Carnegie
Even in such technical lines as engineering, about 15% of one's financial success is due one's technical knowledge and about 85% is due to skill in human engineering, to personality and the ability to lead people.
Dale Carnegie
The most important thing in life is not simply to capitalize on your gains. Any fool can do that. The important thing is to profit from your losses. That requires intelligence, and makes the difference between a man of sense and a fool.
Dale Carnegie
You can't get anywhere in this world without wanting to do something.
Dale Carnegie
Criticism is futile because it puts a person on the defensive and usually makes them strive to justify themselves. Criticism is dangerous, because it wounds a person's precious pride, hurts their sense of importance, and arouses resentment.
Dale Carnegie
