More quotes by George Washington Carver
I believe that the great Creator has put ores and oil on this Earth to give us a breathing spell ... as we exhaust them, we must be prepared to fall back on our farms, which are God's true storehouse. We can learn to synthesize materials for every human need from things that grow.
George Washington Carver
Young people, I want to beg of you always keep your eyes open to what Mother Nature has to teach you. By so doing you will learn many valuable things every day of your life.
George Washington Carver
When our thoughts - which bring actions - are filled with hate against anyone, Negro or white, we are in a living hell. That is as real as hell will ever be.
George Washington Carver
Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more than what is in books, for they speak with the voice of God.
George Washington Carver
Look about you. Take hold of the things that are here. Let them talk to you. You learn to talk to them.
George Washington Carver
Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.

George Washington Carver
Whatever you love opens its secrets to you.
George Washington Carver

George Washington Carver
The beating on the tail of the snake may stop his progress a little, but the more vital parts must be struck before his poisonous death-dealing venom will be wiped out.
George Washington Carver
Let us rejoice at the many unexplored fields in which there is unlimited fame and fortune to the successful explorer . . .
George Washington Carver
God gave them [the discoveries] to me how can I sell them to someone else?
George Washington Carver
I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut they will give up their secrets . . .
George Washington Carver
You can't tear up everything just to get the dollar out of it without suffering as result. It is a travesty to burn our woods and thereby burn up the fertilizer nature has provided for us. We must enrich our soil every year instead of merely depleting it. It is fundamental that nature will drive away those who commit sin against it.
George Washington Carver
All my life I have risen regularly at four o'clock and have gone into the woods and talked to God. There He gives me my orders for the day.
George Washington Carver
There is no short cut to achievement. Life requires thorough preparation - veneer isn't worth anything.
George Washington Carver
There is literally nothing that I ever asked to do, that I asked the blessed Creator to help me to do, that I have not been able to accomplish.
George Washington Carver
