Bernard M. Baruch

Showing quotations 1 to 4 of 4 total Approach each new problem not with a view of finding what you hope will be there, but to get the truth, the realities that must be grappled with. You may not like what you find. In that case you are entitled to try to change it. But do not deceive yourself as to what you do find to be the facts of the situation. Bernard M. BaruchNever answer a critic, unless he's right. Bernard M. BaruchOnly as you do know yourself can your brain serve you as a sharp and efficient tool. Know your own failings, passions, and prejudices so you can separate them from what you see. Bernard M. BaruchTo me, old age is always 15 years older than I am. Bernard M. Baruch, 1940

Bernard Meltzer


A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked.
Bernard Meltzer

Before you speak ask yourself if what you are going to say is true, is kind, is necessary, is helpful. If the answer is no, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid.
Bernard Meltzer

Blessed are those who give without remembering. And blessed are those who take without forgetting.
Bernard Meltzer

Happiness is like a kiss. You must share it to enjoy it.
Bernard Meltzer

If you have learned how to disagree without being disagreeable, then you have discovered the secrete of getting along - whether it be business, family relations, or life itself.
Bernard Meltzer

If you want to be original just try being yourself, because God has never made two people exactly alike.
Bernard Meltzer

Success is getting and achieving what you want. Happiness is wanting and being content with what you get.
Bernard Meltzer

Use those talents you have. You will make it. You will give joy to the world. Take this tip from nature: The woods would be a very silent place if no birds sang except those who sang best.
Bernard Meltzer

We may give without loving, but we cannot love without giving.
Bernard Meltzer

When you forgive, you in no way change the past - but you sure do change the future.
Bernard Meltzer

You can make more friends in two months by becoming really interested in other people, than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
Bernard Meltzer
