Ideas are of themselves extraordinarily valuable, but an idea is just an idea. Almost anyone can think up an idea. The thing that counts is developing it into a practical product.

More quotes by Henry Ford
Come ye thankful people, come, Raise the song of Harvest-home!
Henry Ford
Businesses that grow by development and improvement do not die. But when a business ceases to be creative, when it believes it has reached perfection and needs to do nothing but produce no improvement, no development, it is done
Henry Ford
Borrowing for expansion is one thing borrowing to make up for mismanagement and waste is quite another.
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
Too many men are afraid of being fools.
Henry Ford
Education is not something to prepare you for life it is a continuous part of life.
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
Money the root of all evil, unless used for good purpose
Henry Ford
One needs to be successful in the conventional way to learn just how far away from success it may be.
Henry Ford
If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability.
Henry Ford
Those who walk with God always reach their destination.
Henry Ford
Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black.
Henry Ford
Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.
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
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
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
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
There is no man living that can not do more than he thinks he can.
Henry Ford
Whatever your goal in life, the beginning is knowledge and experience
Henry Ford
To me this is the most beautiful, the most satisfactory from a scientific standpoint, the most logical theory of life. For thirty years I have leaned toward the theory of Reincarnation. It seems a most reasonable philosophy and explains many things.
Henry Ford
