More quotes by William J. H. Boetcker

William J. H. Boetcker
That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
William J. H. Boetcker
The difficulties and struggles of today are but the price we must pay for the accomplishments and victories of tomorrow.
William J. H. Boetcker
For the self-development of men and women it is absolutely necessary that they should be alone with themselves at least one hour each day-to get the blessings of solitude.
William J. H. Boetcker
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
You cannot help the small men, by tearing down the big men.
William J. H. Boetcker
Every so often we hear people clamor for a change. Let's change the Constitution, change the form of Government, change everything for better or worse except to change the only thing that needs changing first: The human heart and our standard of success and human values.
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.
William J. H. Boetcker
No man will succeed unless he is ready to face and overcome difficulties and prepared to assume responsibilities.
William J. H. Boetcker
You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
William J. H. Boetcker
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
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
William J. H. Boetcker
The individual activity of one man with backbone will do more than a thousand men with a mere wishbone.
William J. H. Boetcker
Men will get no more out of life than they put into it.
William J. H. Boetcker
Your success depends mainly upon what you think of yourself and whether you believe in yourself.
William J. H. Boetcker
Are you appalled at existing conditions? Don't waste your energy trying to change conditions from without! Change the Human Heart from within.
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
Nations begin to dig their own graves when men talk more of human rights and less of human duties.
William J. H. Boetcker
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
And you cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.
