More quotes by Charles Koch
Our vision controls the way we think and, therefore, the way we act the vision we have of our jobs determines what we do and the opportunities we see or don't see.
Charles Koch
They say your genetics are going to set your direction regardless of what happens, but I think there's more to it than that.
Charles Koch
Years later, when I asked my father, I said 'Pop, why were you so much harder on me than my younger brothers?' he said, son, you plum wore me out.
Charles Koch
The good and the bad news is that politicians rarely do what they say they are going to do when they campaign.
Charles Koch
I think our biggest problem in society is we're headed more and more toward a two-tiered society. That is, creating welfare for the wealthy and destroying opportunities for the disadvantaged.
Charles Koch
I've been blessed by learning certain principles and values that transformed my life and enabled me to accomplish more than I really had the ability to do or ever dream possible. And so I decided that I wanted to give as many other people as possible the opportunity to learn these ideas and transform their lives as I had.
Charles Koch
I don't have all the answers. I have a lot of questions. And I have some basic principles.
Charles Koch

Profiting from government instead of earning profits in the economy, such businesses can continue to succeed even if they are squandering resources and making products that people wouldn't ordinarily buy.
Charles Koch
A market system is not a profit system, it's a profit-and-loss system.
Charles Koch
The role of business is to provide products and services that make peoples lives better - while using fewer resources - and to act lawfully and with integrity.
Charles Koch
I like to think that I try to learn something every day - and change my views, modify my views as I learn.
Charles Koch
I have been a libertarian in my past but now I consider myself a classical liberal.
Charles Koch
Innovation comes from recombining existing technology and different perspectives in innovative ways.
Charles Koch
We find that when we make an acquisition, or we have a hiring experience, that's one of the hardest things to change. If you've been working for a company where you didn't dare challenge your boss, or what's politically correct in the company, then it affects your career.
Charles Koch
Repeatedly asking for government help undermines the foundations of society by destroying initiative and responsibility. It is also a fatal blow to efficiency and corrupts the political process.
Charles Koch
How do we make people's lives better unless we find the truth of what works and what doesn't?
Charles Koch
I try to hire people who will challenge and have the humility to be challenged - people who have basically good values.
Charles Koch
Success is one of the worst enemies of success, because success tends to breed complacency and lack of humility.
Charles Koch
Far too many businesses have been all too eager to lobby for maintaining and increasing subsidies and mandates paid by taxpayers and consumers.
Charles Koch
The great thing about my parents is they didn't preach anything they didn't practice.
Charles Koch
