Booker T. Washington

No man, who continues to add something to the material, intellectual and moral well-being of the place in which he lives, is left long without proper reward.

Few things can help an individual more than to place responsibility on him, and to let him know that you trust him.

No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.

Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work.
