Success in business does not depend upon genius. Any young man of ordinary intelligence who is normally sound and not afraid to work should succeed in spite of obstacles and handicaps if he plays the game fairly and keeps everlastingly at it.

I believe a man is better anchored who has a belief in the Supreme Being.

Every man must decide for himself whether he shall master his world or be mastered by it.

Intelligence is the effort to do the best you can at your particular job; the quality that gives dignity to that job, whether it happens to be scrubbing a floor or running a corporation.

In every man s life there lies latent energy. There is, however, a spark that, if kindled, will set the whole being afire, and he will become a human dynamo, capable of accomplishing almost anything to which he aspires.

I never trust an executive who tends to pass the buck. Nor would I want to deal with him as a customer or a supplier.

The men who have furnished me with my greatest inspiration have not been men of wealth, but men of deeds.
