the benefits of doing for others ... Dale Carnegie

Do things for others
 and you'll find for 
yourself self-consciousness
 evaporating like 
morning dew on 
a Missouri cornfield

As I grow older, 
I pay less attention 
to what men say. 
I just watch what they do.

Industry, thrift, and 
self-control are not sought 
because they create wealth,
 but because 
they create character.

you put them on a journey, 
you give them peril, 
you find out who they really are.”
