More quotes by George Washington Carver
You can't teach people anything. You can only draw out.
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
When you can do the common things of life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world.
George Washington Carver
Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough.
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
Learn to do the common things uncommonly well.
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

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
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
There are two ways, one is right the other is wrong. If your work is only about right, then it is wrong.
George Washington Carver
I know of nothing more inspiring than that of making discoveries for ones self.
George Washington Carver
I think I'll sleep now.
George Washington Carver
Whatever you love opens its secrets to you.
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
Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater.
George Washington Carver
Education is understanding relationships.
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
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
