John D. Rockefeller
Charity is injurious unless it helps the recipient to become independent of it.
John D. Rockefeller
I should say in general the advantage of education is to better fit a man for life's work. I would advise young men to take a college course, as a rule, but think some are just as well off with a thorough business training.
John D. Rockefeller
I have nothing else to say other than I wasn't corrupt, unfair, or greedy. I was smart when it came to making decisions for my company, and I wasn't greedy. I gave to others in charity and donated money to fund programs. I have nothing else to say.
John D. Rockefeller

John D. Rockefeller
The man who starts out simply with the idea of getting rich won't succeed, you must have a larger ambition.
John D. Rockefeller
I don't want a nation of thinkers, I want a nation of workers
John D. Rockefeller
Do not many of us who fail to achieve big things. . .fail because we lack concentration--the art of concentrating the mind on the thing to be done at the proper time and to the exclusion of everything else?
John D. Rockefeller
If your only goal is to become rich, you will never achieve it.
John D. Rockefeller
Do you know the only thing that gives me pleasure? It's to see my dividends coming in.
John D. Rockefeller
I believe the power to make money is a gift of God.
John D. Rockefeller
And we are never too old to study the Bible. Each time the lessons are studied comes some new meaning, some new thought which will make us better.
John D. Rockefeller
I was early taught to work as well as play. My life has been one long, happy holiday Full of work and full of play- I dropped the worry on the way- And God was good to me everyday.
John D. Rockefeller
The most important thing for a young man is to establish a credit... a reputation, character.
John D. Rockefeller
