SUCCESS MAXIMS

–Part 7–

Matters of Character

  • “Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.”  (John Wooden)

  • “No man is above the law and no man below it.”  (Theodore Roosevelt)
  • “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.”  (Abraham Lincoln)
  • “No man has a good enough memory to make a successful liar.”  (Abraham Lincoln)
  • “The quality of an individual is reflected in the standards he sets for himself.”  (Ray Kroc)
  • “As I grow older I pay less attention to what men say.  I just watch what they do.”  (Andrew Carnegie)
  • “I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.”  (George Washington)
