Quotes

  • “The ideas I stand for are not mine. I borrowed them from Socrates. I swiped them from Chesterfield. I stole them from Jesus. And I put them in a book. If you don't like their rules whose would you use?”
  • “People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.”
  • “Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.”
  • “Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.”
  • “Remember happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have; it depends solely on what you think.”
  • “The essence of all art is to have pleasure in giving pleasure.”

Encyclopedic overview

Dale Carnegie (/ˈkɑːrnɪɡi/ KAR-nig-ee; spelled Carnagey until c. 1922; November 24, 1888 – November 1, 1955) was an American writer and teacher of courses in self-improvement, salesmanship, corporate training, public speaking, and interpersonal skills. Born into poverty on a farm in Missouri, he was the author of How to Win Friends and Influence People (1936), a bestseller that remains popular today. He also wrote How to Stop Worrying and Start Living (1948), Lincoln the Unknown (1932), and several other books.

One of the core ideas in his books is that it is possible to change other people's behavior by changing one's behavior towards them.
