Highlights from "How to Win Friends and Influence People'' by Dale Carnegie

When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic.

We are dealing with creatures of emotions, creatures bristling with prejudices and motivated by pride.

If there is any one secret of  success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view

and see things from the person's angle as well as from your own.

One can win the attention and time and cooperation of even the most sought-after people by becoming genuinely interested in them.

"All men have fears,but the brave put down their fears and go forward, sometimes to death, but always to victory."

"By fighting you never get enough, but by yielding you get more than you expected."

The expression one wears on one's face is more important than the clothes one wears on one's back.

Action speak louder than words, and a smile says,"I like you.You make me happy. I am glad to see you."

Happiness doesn't depend on outward conditions. It depends on inner conditions.

It isn't what you have or who you are or where you are or what you are doing..

..that makes you happy or unhappy.It is what you think about it.
