More quotes by Henry Ford
The most difficult job is the one that you never get started on.
Henry Ford
You don't have to hold a position to be a leader.
Henry Ford
Minicars produce miniprofits.
Henry Ford
Greatest thing we can produce is character. Everything else can be taken from us, but not our character.
Henry Ford
I found that competition was supposed to be a menace and that a good manager circumvented his competitors by getting a monopoly by artificial means.
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
Our clothing, our food, our household furnishings - all could be much simpler than they now are and at the same time be better looking
Henry Ford
All that money can do is buy us some one else's work in exchange for our own.
Henry Ford
The way to learn to do things is to do things. The way to learn a trade is to work at it. Success teaches how to succeed. Begin with the determination to succeed, and the work is half done already.
Henry Ford
A bore is a person who opens his mouth and puts his feats in it.
Henry Ford
You must know all there is to know in your particular field and keep on the alert for new knowledge. The least difference in knowledge between you and another man may spell his success and your failure.
Henry Ford
As a young man, I was very interested in how people lived in earlier times how they got from place to place, lighted their homes, cooked their meals and so on. So I went to the history books. Well, I could find out all about kings and presidents but I could learn nothing of their everyday lives. So I decided that history is bunk.
Henry Ford
People are never so likely to be wrong as when they are organized. And they never have so little freedom. Perhaps that is why the people at large keep their freedom. People can be manipulated only when they are organized.
Henry Ford
Patience and foresight are the two most important qualities in business
Henry Ford
I don't expect to retire. Every man must work, that's his natural destiny.
Henry Ford
Paying good wages is not charity at all-it is the best kind of business.
Henry Ford
Competition whose motive is merely to compete, to drive some other fellow out, never carries very far.
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
Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success.
Henry Ford
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
