When looking for a job, tell the man what you can do for him, not how good you are.

The crowning fortune of a man is to be born to some pursuit which finds him employment and happiness, whether it be to make baskets, or broadswords, or canals, or statues, or songs.

It is all one to me if a man comes from Sing Sing or Harvard. We hire a man, not his history.

If you suspect a man don't employ him, and if you employ him, don't suspect him.

Employment gives health, sobriety, and morals.

Find out what you like doing best and get someone to pay you for doing it.
