Quote

If someone betrays you once, it is his fault. If he betrays you twice, it is your fault. Blessed are those who can laugh at themselves, they will never cease to be amused. Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goals.

Understand the difference between being at work and working.
Henry Ford

Anyone who stops learning is old — whether this happens at twenty or at eighty. Anyone who keeps on learning not only remains young but becomes constantly more valuable — regardless of physical capacity.
Henry Ford

The cure for materialism is to have enough for everybody and to share. When people are sure of having what they need they cease to think about it.
Henry Ford

All that money can do is buy us some one else's work in exchange for our own.

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.

Women do not win formula one races, because they simply are not strong enough to resist the G-forces. In the boardroom, it is different. I believe women are better able to marshal their thoughts than men and because they are less egotistical they make fewer assumptions.

I don’t know much about history, and I wouldn’t give a nickel for all the history in the world. It means nothing to me. History is more or less bunk. It's tradition. We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's damn is the history we make today.

We are always seeking for those things which are in the clouds, not for those that lie at our feet.

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.

Working together is success.
Henry Ford
Image
Those who stop marketing to save money are like those who stop a clock to save time.
Henry Ford
Image
America is not a land of money but of wealth-not a land of rich people, but of successful workers.

Do your best every time because by doing a thing well you build something valuable into yourself

Paying attention to simple little things that most men neglect makes a few men rich.

Sometimes you just don't like somebody

You can do anything if you have enthusiasm.

Burdening people with debt is an old deal not a new deal.
Henry Ford

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.

What we call evil, it seems to me, is simply ignorance bumping its head in the dark.
