P. T. Barnum
Medicine is the means by which we poor feeble creatures try to keep from dying or aching.
P. T. Barnum
If you hesitate, some bolder hand will stretch out before you and get the prize.
P. T. Barnum
Science is the pursuit of pure truth, and the systematizing of it.
P. T. Barnum
Whatever you do, do it with all your might. Work at it, early and late, in season and out of season, not leaving a stone unturned, and never deferring for a single hour that which can be done just as well now.
P. T. Barnum
Fortune always favors the brave, and never helps a man who does not help himself.
P. T. Barnum
Instead of spending money, I earned it.
