Booker T. Washington: “If you earn five dollars a week, put two dollars in the bank.”

I repeat my belief that the world is growing in the direction of giving.

I think I never saw a community of people so happy over anything as were the coloured people over the prospect of this new building.

But taking place at the time it did, and for the reason that it did, no one could ever make me believe that my mother was guilty of thieving.

I never saw a man who so completely lost sight of himself.
