Andrew Carnegie

Quotes

• “To be popular is easy; to be right when right is unpopular, is noble... I repudiate with scorn the immoral doctrine, ‘Our country, right or wrong’.”

• “Did you ever sum up these prizes and think how very little the millionaire has beyond the peasant, and how very often his additions tend not to happiness but to misery!”

• “It is not the rich man’s son that the young struggler for advancement has to fear in the race of life, nor his nephew, nor his cousin. Let him look out for the “dark horse” in the boy who begins by sweeping out the office.”

• “No, Your Majesty, I do not like kings, but I do like a man be­hind a king when I find him.”

• “Watch the costs and the profits take care of themselves.”
