ONE vs. A Dozen

"One man working with you 

is worth a dozen men working 

for you."

~Herman M. Koelliker

What Is A Friend?

"A true friend knows your weaknesses

but shows you your strengths;

feels your fears

but fortifies your faith;

sees your anxieties 

but frees your spirit;

 recognizes your disabilities

but emphasizes your possibilities." 

~William Arthur Ward

What People Say vs. What People Do...

The older I get 

the less I listen to what people say 

and the more I look at what they do. 

~ Andrew Carnegie

FULL-TIME PHILANTHROPIST

When Carnegie retired from business in 1901, he set about in earnest to distribute his fortune. In addition to libraries, he provided hundreds of church organs to local communities.  Carnegie's wealth helped to establish numerous colleges, schools, nonprofit organizations and associations both in his adopted country, as well as in Scotland and throughout the globe. His most significant contribution, both in terms of money and in terms of enduring influence, was the establishment of several endowed trusts or institutions bearing his name.

By the time of his death in 1919, Andrew Carnegie had given away about $350 million, but the legacy of his generosity continues to unfold in the work of the trusts and institutions that he endowed.

in a bulb,

in an acorn.”

Be Who You Are Because...

“Be who you are 
and say what you feel, 
because 
those who mind don’t matter, 
and 
those who matter don’t mind.” 
-Dr. Seuss



Confidence

Confidence

 comes 
not from always being right 
but from not fearing 
to be wrong.

As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.
