Dale Breckenridge Carnegie (originally Carnagey until 1922 and possibly somewhat later) (November 24, 1888 – November 1, 1955) was an American writer, lecturer, and the developer of famous courses in self-improvement, salesmanship, corporate training, public speaking, and interpersonal skills.

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 reaction to them.

    oh.. Dale Carnegie.. He is brilliant and his books are the best! I like most of his quotes and would like to share some with you =)

    " Feeling sorry for yourself, and you present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have. "

    " Most of us have far more courage than we ever dreamed we possessed. "

    " You never achieve real success unless you like what you are doing. "

    " Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success. "
