In all things preserve integrity; and the consciousness of thine own uprightness will alleviate the toil of business, soften the hardness of ill-success and disappointments, and give thee an humble confidence before God, when the ingratitude of man, or the iniquity of the times may rob thee of other reward

“Confidence is contagious and so is lack of confidence, and a customer will recognize both.”

When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred.

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.

Education breeds confidence. Confidence breeds hope. Hope breeds peace.
