There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: make the best quality goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible. Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success. Don’t find fault, find a remedy. Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently. Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right. Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. Employers only handle the money – it is the customer who pays the wages. Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so few engage in it. The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing. If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said ‘faster horses.’ You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do. If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from that person’s angle as well as from your own. Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars.
