George Washington Carver National Monument

A couple of days ago, we took a short trip to Diamond, Missouri in order to see the George Washington Carver National Monument. It's a nice little museum on the property of Dr. Carver's birthplace.
This is my favorite quote from Dr. Carver:
"How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the strong. Because someday in life, you will have been all of these."
