Henry Ford Quotes

    “Money doesn’t change men, it merely unmasks them. If a man is naturally selfish, or arrogant, or greedy, the money brings it out; that’s all.” ~ Henry Ford

      “To do more for the world than the world does for you – that is success.” ~ Henry Ford

        “You don’t have to hold a position in order to be a leader.” ~ Henry Ford

          “The way to learn to do things is to do things. The way to learn a trade is to work at it. Success teaches how to succeed. Begin with the determination to succeed, and the work is half done already.” ~ Henry Ford

            “None of our men are ‘experts.’ We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible. The moment one gets into the ‘expert’ state of mind a great number of things become impossible.” ~ Henry Ford

              “Money doesn’t make us anyway it just unmasks us.” ~ Henry Ford

                “There is no man living who isn’t capable of doing more than he thinks he can do.” ~ Henry Ford

                  “Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so few engage in it.” ~ Henry Ford

                    “The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.” ~ Henry Ford

                      “My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.” ~ Henry Ford

                        “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right.” ~ Henry Ford

                          “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.” ~ Henry Ford

                            “I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity to not know what can’t be done.” ~ Henry Ford

                              “You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.” ~ Henry Ford

                                “When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” ~ Henry Ford

                                  “We don’t want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker’s dam is the history we make today.” ~ Henry Ford

                                    “The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life.” ~ Henry Ford

                                      “The competitor to be feared is one who never bothers about you at all, but goes on making his own business better all the time.” ~ Henry Ford

                                        “Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.” ~ Henry Ford
