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
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
Education is understanding relationships.

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
If you listen carefully enough to anything, it will talk to you.
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
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
Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough.
George Washington Carver
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
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
The secret of my success? It is simple. It is found in the Bible.
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
