the title comes from an Andrew Carnegie quote,
“There lie latent unsuspected powers in willing men [and women] around us which only need appreciation and development to produce surprising results. Money rewards alone will not insure these, for to the most sensitive and ambitious natures there must be the note of sympathy, appreciation, friendship. Genius is sensitive in all its forms, and it is unusual ability—not ordinary ability, that tells [achieves results].
contains recordings of Andrew Carnegie reading from his essay, "The "Gospel of Wealth"
