Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail, in good spirits.

A business absolutely devoted to service will have one worry about profits. They will be embarrassingly large.

There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: Make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible.

In the ordinary business of life, industry can do anything which genius can do, and very many things which it cannot.

The golden rule for every business man is this: ‘Put yourself in your customer’s place.’

Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.

Keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best.

Profit in business comes from repeat customers, customers that boast about your project or service, and that bring friends with them.

'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death.

A series of failures may culminate in the best possible result.

There is no failure except in no longer trying.

Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.

The only difference between success and failure is the ability to take action.

Remember your dreams and fight for them. You must know what you want from life. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible: the fear of failure.
