“If you treat an individual as he is, he will remain how he is. But if you treat him as if he were what he ought to be and could be, he will become what he ought to be and could be.”

“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being.”

“You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.”

“The way you see people is the way you treat them, and the way you treat them is what they become.”

“If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however, if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.”

“For a man to achieve all that is demanded of him, he must regard himself as greater than he is.”

“A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart.”
