Building Character
The Booker T. Way

Inspired by the life and legacy
of Booker T. Washington
       
  • "Opportunities never come a second time, nor do they wait for our leisure."

    Booker T. Washington

  • "Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism."

    Abraham Lincoln

  • "Anyone can seek a job, but it requires a person of rare ability to create a job."

    Booker T. Washington

  • "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."

    Leo Tolstoy

  • You 'own' 168 hours every week. Not one person on the planet owns any more than you.
    So, how will you use your time?"

    Ronald Court



  • "If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else."

    Booker T. Washington
