Putting off a hard thing makes it impossible.
George Horace Lorimer
Never ask a man what he knows, but what he can do.
George Horace Lorimer
Let patriotism have its high days and freedom its monuments, and let the triumphs of navigators and generals be annually observed but surely, beyond all these, a season that stands for as much to the race as Easter does may well be remembered each year with songs and flowers and with every mark of gratitude and of loftiest jubilation.
George Horace Lorimer
A fellow and his business should be bosom friends in the office and sworn enemies out of it.
George Horace Lorimer
You'll find that education's about the only thing lying around loose in this world, and that it's about the only thing a fellow can have as much of as he's willing to haul away. Everything else is screwed down tight and the screw-driver lost.
George Horace Lorimer
In all your dealings, remember that today is your opportunity tomorrow some other fellow's.
George Horace Lorimer
Believe me, it is no time for words when the wounds are fresh and bleeding no time for homilies when the lightning's shaft has smitten, and the man lies stunned and stricken.

George Horace Lorimer

George Horace Lorimer
Appearances are deceitful, I know, but so long as they are, there's nothing like having them deceive for us instead of against us.
George Horace Lorimer
The great secret of good management is to be more alert to prevent a man's going wrong than eager to punish him for it.
George Horace Lorimer
When a fellow's got what he set out for in this world, he should go off into the woods for a few weeks now and then to make sure that he's still a man, and not a plug-hat and a frock-coat and a wad of bills.
George Horace Lorimer
Back of every noble life there are principles that have fashioned it.
George Horace Lorimer
Culture is not a matter of a change of climate.
George Horace Lorimer
The world is full of bright men who know all the right things to say and who say them in the wrong place.
George Horace Lorimer
Because a fellow has failed once or twice or a dozen times, you don't want to set him down as a failure till he's dead or loses his courage.
George Horace Lorimer
Beginning before you know what you want to say and keeping on after you have said it lands a merchant in a lawsuit or the poorhouse, and the first is a shortcut to the second.
George Horace Lorimer
I remember reading once that some fellows use language to conceal thought but it's been my experience that a good many more use it instead of thought.
George Horace Lorimer
True love is not only blind, but too gallant to ask a lady's age.
George Horace Lorimer
The easiest way in the world to make enemies is to hire friends.
