The course of business shapes public opinion.

Basic philosophy, spirit and drive of an organization have far more to do with its relative achievements than do technological or economic resources, organizational structure, innovation and timing.

People should be judged on the basis of their performance, not nationality, personality, education, or personal traits and skills.

The course of business shapes public opinion.

Leading fosters a working atmosphere that stimulates an open exchange of ideas and fosters dissent. People should show a genuine concern for one another and treat one another with fairness, as peers and friends. With such an atmosphere it should be a pleasure to come to work.

There is no such thing as business ethics. There is only one kind -- you have to adhere to the highest standards.

A business of high principle attracts high-caliber people more easily, thereby gaining a basic competitive and profit edge.
