More quotes by 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
Where there is no vision, there is no hope.
George Washington Carver
He who puts a product upon the market as it demands, controls that market, regardless of color. It is simply a survival of the fittest.
George Washington Carver
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.
George Washington Carver
God gave them [the discoveries] to me how can I sell them to someone else?
George Washington Carver
Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater. Keep your thoughts free from hate, and you need have no fear from those who hate you.
George Washington Carver
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
George Washington Carver
Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater.
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
We get closer to God as we get more intimately and understandingly acquainted with the things He has created. I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for one's self.
George Washington Carver
You can't teach people anything. You can only draw out.
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
Since new developments are the products of a creative mind, we must therefore stimulate and encourage that type of mind in every way possible.
George Washington Carver
I know that my Redeemer lives. Thank God I love humanity, complexion doesn't interest me one single a bit.
George Washington Carver
It is not the style of clothes one wears, neither the kind of automobile one drives, nor the amount of money one has in the bank, that counts. These mean nothing. It is simply service that measures success.
George Washington Carver
God is going to reveal to us things He never revealed before if we put our hands in His.
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
Without my Savior, I am nothing.
George Washington Carver
I think I'll sleep now.
