Henry Ford
Image
There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: Make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible.
Henry Ford
Image
Be ready to revise any system, scrap any method, abandon any theory, if the success of the job requires it.
Henry Ford
Image
If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.

We are always seeking for those things which are in the clouds, not for those that lie at our feet.
Henry Ford
Image
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
Henry Ford
Image
A nation that knows how to work will never suffer.
Henry Ford
