Life is work, and everything you do is so much more experience. Sometimes you work for wages, sometimes not, but what does anybody make but a living? And whatever you have you must either use or lose.

The high wage begins down in the shop. If it is not created there it cannot get into pay envelopes. There will never be a system invented which will do away with the necessity for work.

Reading musses up my mind.

Businesses that grow by development and improvement do not die. But when a business ceases to be creative, when it believes it has reached perfection and needs to do nothing but produce no improvement, no development, it is done

Whatever your goal in life, the beginning is knowledge and experience

I do not believe a man can ever leave his business. He ought to think of it by day and dream of it by night.

Some people think they can; some think they can't. They are probably both right.
