More quotes by Henry Ford
I didn't get much peace, but I heard in Norway that Russia might well become a huge market for tractors soon.
Henry Ford
The Government is a servant and never should be anything but a servant. The moment the people become adjuncts to government, then the law of retribution begins to work, for such a relation is unnatural, immoral, and inhuman.
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
When I see an Alfa Romeo go by, I tip my hat.
Henry Ford

Henry Ford
Thinking is hard work, which is why so few people do it.
Henry Ford
The thing to do with money is to put it back into yourself, into your work, into the thing that is important, into whatever you are so much interested in that it is more important than money.
Henry Ford
I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity to not know what can't be done.
Henry Ford
I could use a hundred people who don't know there is such a word as impossible.
Henry Ford
Failure is the chance to do it better next time.
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
There is safety in small beginnings and there is unlimited capital in the experience gained by growing.
Henry Ford
