Often-times the most difficult competition comes, not from the strong, the intelligent, the conservative competitor, but from the man who is holding on by the eyelids and is ignorant of his costs, and anyway he's got to keep running or bust!
John D. Rockefeller
I don't want a nation of thinkers, I want a nation of workers
John D. Rockefeller
