Earl Nightingale
He was hungry for knowledge. All his life he was inspired by the answer to the question: "How can a person, starting from scratch, who has no particular advantage in the world, reach the goals that he feels are important to him, and by so doing, make a major contribution to others?" Nightingale enjoyed a remarkable radio career that lasted for more than forty years. At the time of his death, Earl Nightingale's multitude of recorded messages were played around the world, inspiring people from all cultures, nationalities and races, to live their lives to their fullest.
Today, Earl Nightingale is remembered as one of the greatest philosophers of his time, and his best selling programs and books continue to sell daily, and inspire new generations around the world, to reach their highest potential. (1921-1989)
