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.

Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.

I resolved to stop accumulating and begin the infinitely more serious and difficult task of wise distribution.

Speculation is a parasite feeding upon values, creating none.

A business is seldom if ever built up except on lines of strictest integrity.

TEAMWORK: the fuel that allows common people attain uncommon results.

The average person puts only 25% of his energy and ability into his work.
