8 Cardinal Virtues of George Washington Carver 

“… it is needless for me to keep saying, I hope, except for emphasis, that each one of my children will rise to the full height of your possibilities, which means the possession of these eight cardinal virtues which constitute a lady or gentleman.”

1. Be clean both inside and out.
2. Neither look up to the rich or down on the poor.
3. Lose, if need be, without squealing.
4. Win without bragging.
5. Always be considerate of women, children and older people.
6. Be too brave to lie.
7. Be too generous to cheat.
8. Take you share of the world and let others take theirs.
