More quotes by George Washington Carver

George Washington Carver
Education is understanding relationships.
George Washington Carver
Where there is no vision, there is no hope.
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
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
Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater.
George Washington Carver

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
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
If you listen carefully enough to anything, it will talk to you.
George Washington Carver
I think I'll sleep now.
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
Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.
George Washington Carver
Learn to do the common things uncommonly well.
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
