It is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
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
Image
A man is judged by the company he keeps, and a company is judged by the men it keeps, and the people of Democratic nations are judged by the type and caliber of officers they elect.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
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

Better to be a strong man with a weak point, than to be a weak man without a strong point. A diamond with a flaw is more valuable that a brick without a flaw.

Image
What the carburetor, sparkplug and self-starter are to an automobile, initiative, private enterprise and executive ability are to industry as a whole, including the wage earner, wage payer, wage spender and wage saver, i.e., the investor. If the sparkplug and self-starter get out of commission, the car will come to a standstill.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
Never mind what the 'people' think of you! They may overestimate or underestimate you! Until they discover your real worth, your success depends mainly upon what you think of yourself and whether you believe in yourself. You can succeed if nobody else believes it but you will never succeed if you don't believe in yourself.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
Your greatness is measured by your kindness.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
It is not what people do when they work, but what they do when they don't work that causes all their troubles.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
The more men, generally speaking, will do for a Dollar when they make it, the more that Dollar will do for them when they spend it.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
Never mind what others do do better than yourself, beat your own record from day to day, and you are a success.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
Many modern (so-called) Reformers are just as dangerous as the physician who makes a wrong diagnosis of a disease. They see the trouble from without and prescribe external remedies, while the cause of the trouble is within and needs internal treatment.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
Beware of ignorance when in motion look out for inexperience when in action, and beware of the majority when mentally poisoned with misinformation, for collective ignorance does not become wisdom.
William J. H. Boetcker
Image
A man without religion or spiritual vision is like a captain who finds himself in the midst of an uncharted sea, without compass, rudder and steering wheel. He never knows where he is, which way he is going and where he is going to land.
William J. H. Boetcker
