Businesses that grow by development and improvement do not die. But when a business ceases to be creative, when it believes it has reached perfection and needs to do nothing but produce no improvement, no development, it is done

The Model T blazed the way for the motor industry & started the movement for good roads everywhere. It is still the pioneer car in many parts of the world which are just beginning to be motorized.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

If someone betrays you once, ...

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.

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

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.

Improved productivity means less human sweat, not more.

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.

My grandfather killed my father in my mind. I know he died of cancer-but it was because of what my grandfather did to him.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

Do you want to know the cause...

Do you want to know the cause of war? It is capitalism, greed, the dirty hunger for dollars. Take away the capitalist and you will sweep war from the earth.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

I regarded our progress merel...

I regarded our progress merely as an invitation to do more - as an indication that we had reached a place where we might begin to perform a real service.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

A dollar put into a book and a book mastered might change the whole course of a boy's life. It might easily be the beginning of the development of leadership that would carry the boy far in service to his fellow men.

Without doubt, Thomas Edison is my greatest contemporary.

Every object tells a story if you know how to read it.

A man's college and university degrees mean nothing to me until I see what he is able to do with them.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

The function of the machine is to liberate man from brute burdens, and release his energies to the building of his intellectual and spiritual powers for conquests in the fields of thought and higher action.

Henry Ford 514 quotes

I invented nothing new. I sim...

I invented nothing new. I simply assembled the discoveries of other men behind whom were centuries of work. Had I worked fifty or ten or even five years before, I would have failed. So it is with every new thing. Progress happens when all the factors that make for it are ready, and then it is inevitable. To teach that a comparatively few men are responsible for the greatest forward steps of mankind is the worst sort of nonsense.
