Dale Carnegie

Knowledge isn’t power until it is applied.

There is only one way... to get anybody to do anything. And that is by making the other person want to do it.

If you do something for someone else, never remember. If someone does something for you, never forget.

An argument would have begun to steam and boil and sputter - and you know how arguments end. Even if I had convinced him that he was wrong, his pride would have made it difficult for him to back down and give in.

If you disagree with them you may be tempted to interrupt. But don't. It is dangerous. They won't pay attention to you while they still have a lot of ideas of their own crying for expression. So listen patiently and with an open mind.

Remember that other people may be totally wrong. But they don't think so. Don't condemn them. Any fool can do that. Try to understand them. Only wise, tolerant, exceptional people even try to do that.

If you act enthusiastic, you'll be enthusiastic!

Happiness is largely an attitude of mind, of viewing life from the right angle.

Make the other person feel important - and do it sincerely.

If you want others to like you, if you want to develop real friendships, if you want to help others at the same time as you help yourself, keep this principle in mind: Become genuinely interested in other people.

This is the only chance you will ever have on earth with this exciting adventure called life. So why not plan it, and try to live it as richly, as happily as possible?

Your purpose is to make your audience see what you saw, hear what you heard, feel what you felt.

When you face a problem, solve it then and there if you have the facts necessary to make a decision. Don't keep putting off decisions.

We can't win friends with a scowling face and an upbraiding voice.

Our mental attitude is the x factor that determines our fate.

Appreciation is the legal tender that all souls enjoy.

Don't Criticize, Condemn, Or Complain.

People aren't interested in you. They're interested in themselves

People are not interested in you. They are not interested in me. They are interested in themselves - morning, noon and after dinner.

Everyday is a new life to a wise man.
