Business Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Business

1.
Commerce is so far from being beneficial to arts, or to empire, that it is destructive of both, as all their history shows, for the above reason of individual merit being its great hatred. Empires flourish till they become commercial, and then they are scattered abroad to the four winds.
Blake, William

2.
Corporations cannot commit treason, or be outlawed or excommunicated, for they have no souls.
Coke, Sir Edward

3.
The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.
Gilbey, Walter

4.
Never let an inventor run a company. You can never get him to stop tinkering and bring something to market.
Little, Royal

5.
I work in a strange business, and trust is a word that's not even in the vocabulary.
Basinger, Kim

6.
Letting your customers set your standards is a dangerous game, because the race to the bottom is pretty easy to win. Setting your own standards--and living up to them--is a better way to profit. Not to mention a better way to make your day worth all the effort you put into it.
Seth Godin

7.
The selfish spirit of commerce, which knows no country, and feels no passion or principle but that of gain.
Jefferson, Thomas

8.
There's no business like show business, but there are several businesses like accounting.
David Letterman

9.
You don't hear things that are bad about your company unless you ask. It is easy to hear good tidings, but you have to scratch to get the bad news.
Watson, Thomas J.

10.
What helps people, helps business.
Burnett, Leo

11.
The right merchant is one who has the just average of faculties we call common sense; a man of a strong affinity for facts, who makes up his decision on what he has seen. He is thoroughly persuaded of the truths of arithmetic. There is always a reason, in the man, for his good or bad fortune in making money. Men talk as if there were some magic about this. He knows that all goes on the old road, pound for pound, cent for cent -- for every effect a perfect cause -- and that good luck is another name for tenacity of purpose.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

12.
If each of us hires people smaller than we are, we shall become a company of dwarfs.
Ogilvy, David

13.
It's better to take over and build upon an existing business than to start a new one.
Geneen, Harold S.

14.
If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air pollution, or poverty, he speaks in the language of a certified public accountant analyzing a corporate balance sheet, who is to know that he understands the human problems behind the statistical ones? If the businessman would stop talking like a computer printout or a page from the corporate annual report, other people would stop thinking he had a cash register for a heart. It is as simple as that -- but that isn't simple.
Lundborg, Louis B.

15.
Feedback is the breakfast of champions.
Blanchard, Ken

16.
Designing your product for monetization first, and people second will probably leave you with neither.
Tara Hunt

17.
Business, that's easily defined; it's other people's money.
Dumas, Alexandre

18.
Few great men could pass personal.
Goodman, Paul

19.
Business is not just doing deals; business is having great products, doing great engineering, and providing tremendous service to customers. Finally, business is a cobweb of human relationships.
Perot, H. Ross

20.
Cut your losses and let your profits run.
Proverb, American

21.
Don't steal; thou it never thus compete successfully in business. Cheat.
Bierce, Ambrose

22.
Let love give way to business; give attention to business and you will be safe.
Ovid

23.
In our factory, we make lipstick. In our advertising, we sell hope.
Revson, Charles

24.
Business has only two functions -- marketing and innovation.
Drucker, Peter F.

25.
The simple opposition between the people and big business has disappeared because the people themselves have become so deeply involved in big business.
Lippmann, Walter

26.
Our planning system was dynamite when we first put it in. The thinking was fresh; the form mattered little. It was idea oriented. We then hired a head of planning, and he hired two vice presidents, and then he hired a planner; and the books got thicker, and the printing more sophisticated, and the covers got harder, and the drawings got better.
Welch, John

27.
In modern business it is not the crook who is to be feared most, it is the honest man who doesn't know what he is doing.
Young, Owen D.

28.
As a small businessperson, you have no greater leverage than the truth.
Hawken, Paul

29.
You can hype a questionable product for a little while, but you'll never build an enduring business.
Kiam, Victor

30.
Business is like war in one respect. If its grand strategy is correct, any number of tactical errors can be made and yet the enterprise proves successful.
Woods, General Robert E.

31.
Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about.
Kashoggi, Adnan

32.
You can't run a business or anything else on a theory.
Geneen, Harold S.

33.
I ran the wrong kind of business, but I did it with integrity.
Sydney Biddle Barrows

34.
Never write an advertisement which you wouldn't want your own family to read. You wouldn't tell lies to your own wife. Don't tell them to mine. Do as you would be done by. If you tell lies about a product, you will be found out -- either by the Government, which will prosecute you, or by the consumer, who will punish you by not buying your product a second time. Good products can be sold by honest advertising. If you don't think the product is good, you have no business to be advertising it.
Ogilvy, David

35.
If you don't drive your business you will be driven out of business.
Forbes, B. C.

36.
'Whom are you?'he asked, for he had attended business college.
George Ade

37.
Every man is a consumer and ought to be a producer.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

38.
In business, the competition will bite you if you keep running, if you stand still, they will swallow you.
Knudsen, William

39.
Entrepreneurs are simply those who understand that there is little difference between obstacle and opportunity and are able to turn both to their advantage.
Kiam, Victor

40.
There's a lot more business out there in small town America than I ever dreamed of.
Walton, Sam

41.
Don't forget until too late that the business of life is not business, but living.
Forbes, B. C.

42.
You generally hear that what a man doesn't know doesn't hurt him, but in business what a man doesn't know does hurt.
Lewis, E. St. Elmo

43.
If you did not look after today's business then you might as well forget about tomorrow.
Mophatlane, Isaac

44.
If you can't pay for a thing, don't buy it. If you can't get paid for it, don't sell it. Do this, and you will have calm and drowsy nights, with all of the good business you have now and none of the bad. If you have time, don't wait for time.
Franklin, Benjamin

45.
We are all manufacturers. Making good, making trouble, or making excuses.
Adolt, H. V.

46.
Location, location, location.
Dillard, William

47.
The five steps in teaching an employee new skills are preparation, explanation, showing, observation and supervision.
Hook, Harold

48.
More business is lost every year through neglect than through any other cause.
Cathcart, Jim

49.
Drive your business, let not your business drive you.
Franklin, Benjamin

50.
Frankly, I don't want to see a rapid upturn.I want it to hold until some of these idiotic competitors go bust.
Bamford, Joe
