Business is never as healthy as when, like a chicken, it must do a certain amount of scratching for what it gets.
Henry Ford
Image
I did not say history was bunk. It was bunk to me . . I did not need it very bad.
Henry Ford
Image
The fuel of the future is going to come from fruit like that sumach out by the road, or from apples, weeds, sawdust - almost anything.
