I believe the true road to preeminent success in any line is to make yourself master in that line. I have no faith in the policy of scattering one's resources, and in my experience I have rarely if ever met a man who achieved preeminence in money making.. certainly never one in manufacturing.. who was interested in many concerns.

I wish to have as my epitaph: 'Here lies a man who was wise enough to bring into his service men who knew more than he.'

There is no idol more debasing than the worship of money.

He that cannot reason is a fool. He that will not is a bigot. He that dare not is a slave.

The price which society pays for the law of competition, like the price it pays for cheap comforts and luxuries, is great; but the advantages of this law are also greater still than its cost- for it is to this law that we owe our wonderful material development, which brings improved conditions in its train.

Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision.

Whatever I engage in, I must push inordinately.
