The people must be helped to think naturally about money. They must be told what it is, and what makes it money, and what are the possible tricks of the present system which put nations and peoples under control of the few.
Henry Ford
Image
There is joy in work. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
Henry Ford

A business which can bring itself to the point where it attracts the attention of money should be able to continue on its own feet without being financed.
Henry Ford

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.
