“No person ever got very high by pulling other people down. The intelligent merchant does not knock dawn his competitors. The sensible worker does not knock dawn those who work with him. Don’t knock dawn your friends. Don’t knock dawn your enemies. Don’t knock dawn yourself.”~ Lord Alfred Tennyson, 1809-1892, English Poet
Dr Bill Wooten 
For in knocking down others, we are in fact knocking down ourselves as well. Happy Monday Bill..
Thanks Mimi and happy Monday to you
Nice quote.
Thanks Ivsrao
Dr. Bill,
You would think this is common sense, but so many people don’t get it. You lift yourself up by surrounding yourself by savvy people and praising their accomplishments. In turn, they are there for you.
So true, but as you said many don’t understand this as they are so wrapped up in their own hubris. Thanks
Truer words never spoken.
Fantastic quote. I think the hardest to follow is the last two (your enemies and yourself)
