More quotes by George Washington Carver
Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough.
George Washington Carver
We have become ninety-nine percent money mad. The method of living at home modestly and within our income, laying a little by systematically for the proverbial rainy day which is due to come, can almost be listed among the lost arts.
George Washington Carver
The centre of his world was the south where he was born in slavery some 79 years ago and where he did his work as a creative scientist.
George Washington Carver
Education is understanding relationships.
George Washington Carver
I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for ones self.
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
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
George Washington Carver
If you listen carefully enough to anything, it will talk to you.
George Washington Carver
You can't teach people anything. You can only draw out.
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
Education, in the broadest of truest sense, will make an individual seek to help all people, regardless of race, regardless of color, regardless of condition.
George Washington Carver
Learn to do the common things uncommonly well.
George Washington Carver
The secret of my success? It is simple. It is found in the Bible.
George Washington Carver
I think I'll sleep now.
George Washington Carver
There is no shortcut to achievement.
George Washington Carver
When you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world.
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
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
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.
