Small does of advertising result in nothing, obviously. It's like giving a sick person half the medicine he needs. It just causes more suffering. Give the whole dose, and the cure will be certain and decisive.

Your success depends on what you do yourself, with your own means
P. T. Barnum
There is scarcely anything that drags a person down like debt.
P. T. Barnum
There is no such thing in the world as luck. There never was a man who could go out in the morning and find a purse full of gold in the street to-day, and another to-morrow, and so on, day after day: He may do so once in his life but so far as mere luck is concerned, he is as liable to lose it as to find it.
P. T. Barnum
Money is in some respects like fire it is a very excellent servant but a terrible master.
P. T. Barnum
To me there is no picture so beautiful as smiling, bright-eyed, happy children no music so sweet as their clear and ringing laughter.

P. T. Barnum

P. T. Barnum
The possession of a perfect knowledge of your business is an absolute necessity in order to insure success.
P. T. Barnum
Advertising is to a genuine article what manure is to land, - it largely increases the product.
P. T. Barnum

P. T. Barnum
Advertising is like learning - a little is a dangerous thing. If a man has not the pluck to keep on advertising, all the money he has already spent is lost.
P. T. Barnum
If I shoot at the sun, I may hit a star.
P. T. Barnum
Politeness and civility are the best capital ever invested in business.
P. T. Barnum
To forgive heals the wound, to forget heals the scar.
P. T. Barnum
There is a fool born every minute
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
Those who really desire to attain an independence, have only set their minds upon it, and adopt the proper means, as they do in regard to any other object which they wish to accomplish, and the thing is easily done.
P. T. Barnum
