Booker T. Washington

I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him.

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 while trying to succeed.

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.

No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.

No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.
