More quotes by Henry Ford
Be ready to revise any system, scrap any method, abandon any theory, if the success of the job requires it.
Henry Ford
Unless you have courage, a courage that keeps you going, always going, no matter what happens, there is no certainty of success. It is really an endurance race.
Henry Ford
We are here for experience, and experience is a preparation to know the Truth when we meet it.
Henry Ford
I think that much of the advice given to young men about saving money is wrong. I never saved a cent until I was forty years old. I invested in myself - in study, in mastering my tools, in preparation. Many a man who is putting a few dollars a week into the bank would do much better to put it into himself.
Henry Ford
If I'd listened to customers, I'd have given them a faster horse.
Henry Ford
I invented nothing new. I simply combined the inventions of others into a car. Had I worked fifty or ten or even five years before, I would have failed.
Henry Ford
The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life.
Henry Ford
There are two fools in this world. One is the millionaire who thinks that by hoarding money he can somehow accumulate real power, and the other is the penniless reformer who thinks that if only he can take the money from one class and give it to another, all the world's ills will be cured.
Henry Ford
Our policy is to reduce the price, extend the operations, and improve the article.
Henry Ford
A man ought to be able to live on a scale commensurate with the service that he renders.
Henry Ford
Labour is the human element which makes the fruitful seasons of the earth useful to men.
Henry Ford
When I see an Alfa Romeo go by, I tip my hat.
Henry Ford
Business is never as healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching for what it gets.
Henry Ford
We teach children to save their money. As an attempt to counteract thoughtless and selfish expenditure, that has value. But it is not positive it does not lead the child into the safe and useful avenues of self-expression or self-expenditure. To teach a child to invest and use is better than to teach him to save.
Henry Ford
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
The whole key of the profitable everyday living will be to discover out what's one's future to try and do, and after that do it.
Henry Ford
It is not usual to speak of an employee as a partner, and yet what else is he?
Henry Ford
There is no such thing as no chance.
Henry Ford
Since we do not take a man on his past history, we do not refuse him because of his past history. I never met a man who was thoroughly bad. There is always some good in him if he gets a chance.
Henry Ford
Almost all enduring success comes to people after they are forty. For seldom does mature judgment arrive before then.
