"The First Practical Philosophy Of Human Achievement"
Image via Wikipedia Andrew Carnegie felt that there was a need for a new philosophy he said,”We've had lots of philosophies going back to the days of Socrates , Plato , James, what we need is a Philosophy that would conserve and pass on to the on coming generation”,the sum total of what men like he had learned over a life time of trial and error methods. He went on to say, “That It was one of the sins of the ages that this knowledge gained at such a tremendous price by so many men, was buried with their bones when they died and nobody had ever organised it into a philosophy and made it available to the man in the street.” He Said, “If I commission you to become Author of this philosophy, give you letters of introduction to people who's help you'll need, are you willing to devote twenty-years to research, because that's about how long it's going to take, earning your own way as you go along without any subsidy from me, yes or no?” What a fantastic thing
