There are two extremes to be ...

There are two extremes to be avoided: one is the attitude of contempt toward education, the other is the tragic snobbery of assuming that marching through an educational system is a sure cure for ignorance and mediocrity.

Ideas are of themselves extraordinarily valuable, but an idea is just an idea. Almost anyone can think up an idea. The thing that counts is developing it into a practical product.

To be good is not enough; a man must be good for something

Integrity is crucial for business success - once you can fake that, you've got it made.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

A big business never becomes ...

A big business never becomes big by being a narrow society looking after only the interests of its organization and stockholders.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

The people must be helped to ...

The people must be helped to think naturally about money. They must be told what it is, and what makes it money, and what are the possible tricks of the present system which put nations and peoples under control of the few.

The only motive that can keep politics pure is the motive of doing good for one's country and its people.

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.

Money is worth what it will help you to produce or buy and no more.

The great need of the world has always been for leaders. With more leaders we could have more industry. More industry, more employment and comfort for all.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

I adopted the theory of Reincarnation when I was twenty six. Religion offered nothing to the point. Even work could not give me complete satisfaction. Work is futile if we cannot utilise the experience we collect in one life in the next. When I discovered Reincarnation... time was no longer limited. I was no longer a slave to the hands of the clock... I would like to communicate to others the calmness that the long view of life gives to us.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

Machines were devised not to ...

Machines were devised not to do a man out of a job, but to take the heavy labor from man's back and place it on the broad back of the machine.

I could use a hundred people who don't know there is such a word as impossible.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

The time will come when man will know even what is going on in the other planets and perhaps be able to visit them.

The man who is too set to change is dead already. The funeral is a mere detail.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

The human race cannot forever exist half-exploiters and half-exploited.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

For thirty years I have leane...

For thirty years I have leaned toward the theory of Reincarnation. It seems a most reasonable philosophy and explains many things. No, I have no desire to know what, or who I was once; or what, or who, I shall be in the ages to come. This belief in immortality makes present living the more attractive. It gives you all the time there is. You will always be able to finish what you start. There is no fever or strain in such an outlook. We are here in life for one purpose: to get experience. We are all getting it, and we shall all use it somewhere.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

Success is a matter of adjusting one's efforts to obstacles and one's abilities to a service needed by others.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

Where people work longest and...

Where people work longest and with least leisure, they buy the fewest goods. No towns were so poor as those of England where the people, from children up, worked fifteen and sixteen hours a day. They were poor because these overworked people soon wore out -- they became less and less valuable as workers. Therefore, they earned less and less and could buy less and less.
