More quotes by Henry Ford
I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about.

You will find men who want to be carried on the shoulders of others, who think that the world owes them a living. They don't seem to see that we must all lift together and pull together.
Henry Ford
Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black.
Henry Ford
America is not a land of money but of wealth-not a land of rich people, but of successful workers.

Almost all enduring success comes to people after they are forty. For seldom does mature judgment arrive before then.
