Additional quotes by Booker T. Washington

The world cares very little what you or I know, but it does care a great deal about what you or I do.

I early learned that it is a hard matter to convert an individual by abusing him, and that this is more often accomplished by giving credit for all the praiseworthy actions performed than by calling attention alone to all the evil done.
