You can make more friends in two months
by becoming interested in other people
than you can in two years by trying
to get other people interested in you.

When we hate our enemies, we are
giving them power over us:
power over our sleep, our appetites,
our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness.

Our hate is not hurting them at all,
but our hate is turning our own days
and nights into a hellish turmoil.
- Dale Carnegie

You can close more business in two months

say it;
then tell them what you've said.
- Dale Carnegie

hear what you heard, feel what you felt.

colorful language, is the best way
to recreate the incident as it happened
and to picture it for the audience.
- Dale Carnegie

To the people who love you,
