Booker T. Washington
“If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.”
Booker T. Washington

Booker T. Washington
“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”
Booker T. Washington

Booker T. Washington
“I have begun everything with the idea that I could succeed, and I never had much patience with the multitudes of people who are always ready to explain why one cannot succeed.”
Booker T. Washington, Up from Slavery

Booker T. Washington
“The thing to do when one feels sure that he has said or done the right thing and is condemned, is to stand still and keep quiet. If he is right, time will show it.”
Booker T. Washington, Up from Slavery

Booker T. Washington
“The happiest people are those who do the most for others. The most miserable are those who do the least.”
Booker T. Washington, Up from Slavery
