More quotes by Henry Ford

Image
Records can be destroyed if they do not suit the prejudices of ruling cliques, lost if they become incomprehensible, distorted if a copyist wishes to impose a new meaning upon them, misunderstood if we lack the information to interpret them. The past is like a huge library, mostly fiction.

Henry Ford
Image
The boss is not paying you. They just keep the money for you only. New customers who actually paid
Henry Ford
Image
The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life.
Henry Ford
Image
A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business.
Henry Ford
Image
Wealth is nothing more or less than a tool to do things with. It is like the fuel that runs the furnace or the belt that runs the wheel - only a means to an end.
Henry Ford
Image
It is a striving to attain the best. To throttle it would mean to stop all progress. Certain men do not need to compete. They are pioneers.
Henry Ford
Image
Bankers play far too great a part in the conduct of industry.
Henry Ford
Image
If you need a machine and don't buy it, then you will ultimately find that you have paid for it and don't have it.
