А неглупый мужик был Генри Форд
А неглупый мужик был Генри Форд
Набрел случайно на цитаты Генри Форда. И к своему удивлению обнаружил, что с нижеизложенными концепциями я не просто "согласен", а я конкретно ими живу вот уже последние несколько лет.
Делюсь
A bore is a person who opens his mouth and puts his feats in it.
An idealist is a person who helps other people to be prosperous.
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.
Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success.
Capital punishment is as fundamentally wrong as a cure for crime as charity is wrong as a cure for poverty.
Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice.
Don't find fault, find a remedy.
Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.
Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.
Money doesn't change men, it merely unmasks them. If a man is naturally selfish or arrogant or greedy, the money brings that out, that's all.
My best friend is the one who brings out the best in me.
Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs.
Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.
One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.
Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.
There are two fools in this world. One is the millionaire who thinks that by hoarding money he can somehow accumulate real power, and the other is the penniless reformer who thinks that if only he can take the money from one class and give it to another, all the world's ills will be cured.
We don't want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker's dam is the history we make today.
You will find men who want to be carried on the shoulders of others, who think that the world owes them a living. They don't seem to see that we must all lift together and pull together.
Ну и моя самая любимая:
If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

Да, очень здорово местами. Конечно, эти афоризмы дают ответы не на все жизненные вопросы, но могут помочь в достижении жизненных целей и успеха, весьма настраивая на позитивный рабочий лад.

Вот еще что интересного нарыл - Форд был первый кто ввел 40 часовую рабочую неделю для рабочих своего производства.
Вот она воистину забота о трудящихся.

В свое время я писала реферат о Г.Форде и насобирала много интересного. Не все его так положительно характеризует. Например, он лично посещал жилища работников, пытаясь выяснить их благонадежность, составлял досье и черные списки. Он открыто ненавидел евреев и принципиально не принимал их на работу и об этом было всеобще известно. В то время в Америке не было запрета на дискриминацию (положение индейцев, черного населения, Ку-Клукс-Клан) и его не преследовали, но сейчас об этом предпочитают не вспоминать.
