lunch world would-be
If more persons would get so enthused over their day's work that some one would have to remind them to go out to lunch there would be more happiness in the world and less indigestion.
ifs
If you must be a glutton, be a glutton for work.
overalls reluctant
Don't be reluctant about putting on overalls!
successful men thinking
All successful employers are stalking men who will do the unusual, men who think, men who attract attention by performing more than is expected of them.
boys careers firsts
The first essential in a boy's career is to find out what he's fitted for, what he's most capable of doing and doing with a relish.
men effort criticism
In my wide association in life, meeting with many and great men in various parts of the world, I have yet to find the man, however great or exalted his station, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than he would ever do under a spirit of criticism.
mind limits sticks
Every one's got it in him, if he'll only make up his mind and stick at it. None of us is born with a stop-valve on his powers or with a set limit to his capacities, There's no limit possible to the expansion of each one of us.
management labor position
I will not be in the position of having management dictated to by labor.
secret littles trailers
Keeping a little ahead of conditions is one of the secrets of business; the trailer seldom goes far.
careers together fifty
I have probably purchased fifty 'hot tips' in my career, maybe even more. When I put them all together, I know I am a net loser.
friendship happy-life enemy
Be friends with everybody. When you have friends you will know there is somebody who will stand by you. You know the old saying, that if you have a single enemy you will find him everywhere. It doesn't pay to make enemies. Lead the life that will make you kindly and friendly to every one about you, and you will be surprised what a happy life you will live.
jobs waiting peaceful
A factory can be closed down, its chimneys smokeless, waiting for the worker to come back to his job, and all will be peaceful. But the moment workers are imported, and the striker sees his own place usurped, there is bound to be trouble.
kids hands gloves
Bare hands grip success better than kid gloves.
house steel evening
In my own house I rigged up a laboratory and studied chemistry in the evenings, determined that there should be nothing in the manufacture of steel that I would not know. Although I had received no technical education I made myself master of chemistry and of the laboratory, which proved of lasting value.
