ОглавлениеTRIBUTES TO “LAW OF SUCCESS”
FROM GREAT AMERICAN LEADERS
The publishers feel that you will realize more keenly the enormous value of these lessons—if you first read a few tributes from great leaders in Finance, Science, Invention, and Political Life.
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
Washington, D.C.
MY DEAR MR. HILL: I have now had an opportunity to finish reading your Law of Success textbooks, and I wish to express my appreciation of the splendid work you have done in this philosophy. It would be helpful if every politician in the country would assimilate and apply the 17 principles upon which the Law of Success is based. It contains some very fine material which every leader in every walk of life should understand. (Former President of the United States.)
WM. H. TAFT
(Former Chief Justice)
LABORATORY OF THOMAS A. EDISON
MY DEAR MR. HILL: Allow me to express my appreciation of the compliment you have paid me in sending me the original manuscript of Law of Success. I can see you have spent a great deal of time and thought in its preparation. Your philosophy is sound and you are to be congratulated for sticking to your work over so long a period of years. Your students … will be amply rewarded for their labor. (The world’s greatest inventor)
THOS. A. EDISON
PUBLIC LEDGER
Philadelphia
DEAR MR. HILL: Thank you for your Law of Success. It is great stuff; I shall finish reading it. I would like to reprint that story “What I would do if I had a Million Dollars,” in the Business Section of the Public Ledger, if you will give me your permission.
CYRUS H. K. CURTIS
(Publisher of Saturday Evening Post, Ladies Home Journal, etc.)
KING OF THE 5 AND 10 CENT STORES
“By applying many of the 17 fundamentals of the Law of Success philosophy we have built a great chain of successful stores. I presume it would be no exaggeration of fact if I said that the Woolworth Building might properly be called a monument to the soundness of these principles.”
F. W. WOOLWORTH
A GREAT STEAMSHIP MAGNATE
“I feel greatly indebted for the privilege of reading your Law of Success. If I had had this philosophy fifty years ago, I suppose I could have accomplished all that I have done in less than half the time. I sincerely hope the world will discover and reward you.”
ROBERT DOLLAR
FAMOUS AMERICAN LABOR LEADER
“Mastery of the Law of Success philosophy is the equivalent of an insurance policy against failure.”
SAMUEL GOMPERS
A FORMER PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
“May I not congratulate you on your persistence. Any man who devotes that much time … must of necessity make discoveries of great value to others. I am deeply impressed by your interpretation of the ‘Master Mind’ principles which you have so clearly described.”
WOODROW WILSON
A MERCHANT PRINCE
“I know that your 17 fundamentals of success are sound because I have been applying them in my business for more than 30 years.”
JOHN WANAMAKER
WORLD’S LARGEST MAKER OF CAMERAS
“I know that you are doing a world of good with your Law of Success. I would not care to set a monetary value on this training because it brings to the student qualities which cannot be measured by money, alone.”
GEORGE EASTMAN
A NATIONALLY KNOWN BUSINESS CHIEF
“Whatever success I may have attained I owe, entirely, to the application of your 17 fundamental principles of the Law of Success. I believe I have the honor of being your first student.”
WM. WRIGLEY, JR.
DEDICATED TO
ANDREW CARNEGIE
who suggested the writing of the course, and to
HENRY FORD
whose astounding achievements form the foundation for practically all of the Sixteen Lessons of the course, and to
EDWIN C. BARNES
a business associate of Thomas A. Edison, whose close personal friendship over a period of more than fifteen years served to help the author “carry on” in the face of a great variety of adversities and much temporary defeat met with in organizing the course.
Side note: Who said it could not be done? And what great victories has he to his credit which qualify him to judge others accurately?—NAPOLEON HILL.
