How much money does it take to make a man happy? Just one more dollar.

Singleness of purpose is one of the chief essentials for success in life, no matter what may be one's aim.

Probably the greatest single obstacle to the progress and happiness of the American people lies in the willingness of so many men to invest their time and money in multiplying competitive industries instead of opening up new fields, and putting their money into lines of industry and development that are needed.

Well i know that my company is not corrupt or unfair because i got all this with all my hard work. I see no reason why you say my company was corrupt may you explain to me miss [Ida] Tarbell.

I raised my prices since there wasn't any competition it was just the smart thing to do. Why would I keep my prices up if their wasn't anyone to beat?

If my name were John D Smith IV I wouldn't have been elected to anything.

Be sure that you are not deceiving yourself at any time about actual conditions.
