Booker T. Washington Quotes . . .
"Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome."
"If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else."
"Character, not circumstances, makes the man."
"Excellence is to do a common thing in an uncommon way."
“The happiest people are those who do the most for others. The most miserable are those who do the least.”
“Egotism is the anesthetic that dulls the pain of stupidity”
“I would permit no man, no matter what his color might be, to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him.”
