More From Booker T. Washington
- "Success in life is founded upon attention to the small things rather than to the large things; to the every day things nearest to us rather than to the things that are remote and uncommon."
- "Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work."
- "I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed."
