More quotes by P. T. Barnum
Engage in one kind of business only, and stick to it faithfully until you succeed, or until you conclude to abandon it. A constant hammering on one nail will generally drive it home at last, so that it can be clinched.
P. T. Barnum
Medicine is the means by which we poor feeble creatures try to keep from dying or aching.
P. T. Barnum
No profession, trade, or calling, is overcrowded in the upper story.
P. T. Barnum
Without publicity a terrible thing happens: nothing.
P. T. Barnum
A penny here, and a dollar there, placed at interest, goes on accumulating, and in this way the desired result is attained.
P. T. Barnum
Men, women, and children who cannot live on gravity alone need something to satisfy their gayer, lighter moods and hours, and he who ministers to this want is, in my opinion, in a business established by the Creator of our nature. If he worthily fulfills his mission and amuses without corrupting, he need never feel that he has lived in vain.
P. T. Barnum
Literature is one of the most interesting and significant expressions of humanity.
P. T. Barnum
He who is without a newspaper is cut off from his species.
P. T. Barnum

P. T. Barnum
When a man is in the right path, he must persevere.
P. T. Barnum
Nothing draws a crowd quite like a crowd.
P. T. Barnum
The wonders of the ages assembled for your edification, education and enjoyment - for a price.
P. T. Barnum
Politics and government are certainly among the most important of practical human interests.
P. T. Barnum
There's no such thing as bad publicity.
P. T. Barnum
Advertising is to a genuine article what manure is to land, - it largely increases the product.
P. T. Barnum
I am a showman by profession... and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me.
P. T. Barnum
Advertising is like learning - a little is a dangerous thing.
P. T. Barnum
You can fool most of the people most of the time.
P. T. Barnum
Politeness and civility are the best capital ever invested in business. Large stores, gilt signs, flaming advertisements, will all prove unavailing if you or your employees treat your patrons abruptly. The truth is, the more kind and liberal a man is, the more generous will be the patronage bestowed upon him.
P. T. Barnum
There is a fool born every minute
