More quotes by William J. H. Boetcker
The man who is worthy of being a leader of men will never complain about the stupidity of his helpers, the ingratitude of mankind nor the inappreciation of the public. These are all a part of the great game of life. To meet them and overcome them and not to go down before them in disgust, discouragement or defeat-that is the final proof of power
William J. H. Boetcker

William J. H. Boetcker
Most men believe that it would benefit them if they could get a little from those who have more. How much more would it benefit them if they would learn a little from those who know more.
William J. H. Boetcker
We will never have real safety and security for wage earners unless we provide for safety and security for the wage payers and wage savers.
William J. H. Boetcker
Your greatness is measured by your kindness.
William J. H. Boetcker
You can succeed if nobody else believes it, but you will never succeed if you don't believe in yourself.
William J. H. Boetcker
And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.
William J. H. Boetcker
Before you can write a check, you must first make out a deposit slip before you can draw money out of a bank, you must put money into a bank before you are entitled to a living, you must give the world a life if you want to make a first-class living, learn to give the world a first-class life.
William J. H. Boetcker
If the majority of people of a country, no matter how great its natural resources, organize and conspire to get more out and put less in, to do less and get more, how long will, how long can it last?
William J. H. Boetcker
If you wish to succeed in managing and controlling others - learn to manage and control yourself.
William J. H. Boetcker
No man can make good during working hours who does the wrong thing outside of working hours.
William J. H. Boetcker
If your business keeps you so busy that you have no time for anything else, there must be something wrong either with you or with your business.

Men must be honest with themselves before they can be honest with others. A man who is not honest with himself presents a hopeless case.
William J. H. Boetcker
