Henry Ford quotes about
integrity fake honor
Integrity is crucial for business success - once you can fake that, you've got it made.
chance
There is no such thing as no chance.
pay envelopes wages
The high wage begins down in the shop. If it is not created there it cannot get into pay envelopes. There will never be a system invented which will do away with the necessity for work.
opportunity overalls
Opportunities will not overlook you because you are wearing overalls.
strong business believe
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.
confused progress fever
Change is not always progress.... A fever of newness had been everywhere confused with the spirit of progress.
business company ford-motor
In the Ford Motor Company, we emphasize service equally with sales.
kings business men
Every business is a monarchy with, not a man, but an idea as king.
happiness profit chiefs
Profit is a by-product of work; happiness is its chief product.
teamwork men mind
Why should I clutter my mind with general information when I have men around me who can supply any knowledge I need?
looks
The farther you look back, the farther you can look ahead.
race forever half
The human race cannot forever exist half-exploiters and half-exploited.
motivational real school
All Fords are exactly alike, but no two men are just alike. Every new life is a new thing under the sun; there has never been anything just like it before, never will be again. A young man ought to get that idea about himself; he should look for the single spark of individuality that makes him different from other folks, and develop that for all he is worth. Society and schools may try to iron it out of him; their tendency is to put it all in the same mold, but I say don't let that spark be lost; it is your only real claim to importance.
scatterbrain unspoken
A scatterbrain is one who never has an unspoken thought.
