Work is the basis of living. I'll never retire. A man'll rust out quicker than he'll wear out.

I made a resolve then that I was going to amount to something if I could. And no hours, nor amount of labor, nor amount of money would deter me from giving the best that there was in me. And I have done that ever since, and I win by it. I know.

You got to like your work. You have got to like what you are doing, you have got to be doing something worthwhile so you can like it - because it is worthwhile, that it makes a difference, don't you see?

No hours, nor amount of labor, nor amount of money would deter me from giving the best that there was in me.

I was sixty-six years old. I still had to make a living. I looked at my social security check of 105 dollars and decided to use that to try to franchise my chicken recipe. Folks had always liked my chicken.

There's something inside of me that makes me want to help people, especially people who are having difficulty of some kind.

Don’t be against things so much as for things.
