Quotations By Henry Ford

Ability

It is all one to me if a man comes from Sing Sing or Harvard. We hire a man, not his history.

Chance

There is no such thing as no chance.

Change

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.

Education

You can't learn in school what the world is going to do next year.

Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.

Success

Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success.
