Quotes by George Washington Carver

“Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Not only have I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut they will give up their secrets, but I have found that when I silently commune with people they give up their secrets also - if you love them enough.”
“How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong -- because someday you will have been all of these.”
“Ninety-nine percent of all failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.”
“One of the things that has helped me as much as any other, is not how long I am going to live, but how much I can do while living.”
“When you do the common things in life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world.”
