Best Quotes about Business
Good design can't fix broken business models.
Jeffrey Veen
Business, more than any other occupation, is a continual dealing with the future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive exercise in foresight.
Luce, Henry
If a business does well, the stock eventually follows.
Buffett, Warren
Utility is our national shibboleth: the savior of the American businessman is fact and his uterine half-brother, statistics.
Dahlberg, Edward
The secret of business is to know something that nobody else knows.
Onassis, Aristotle
Business is like a wheelbarrow--it stands still until someone pushes it.
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
The novice in advertising frequently gives the public credit, for too much intelligence.
In the modern world of business, it is useless to be a creative original thinker unless you can also sell what you create. Management cannot be expected to recognize a good idea unless it is presented to them by a good salesman.
David M. Ogilvy
It doesn't matter to me if a man is from Harvard or Sing Sing. We hire the man, not his history.
Ford, Henry
Show me the business man or institution not guided by sentiment and service; by the idea that he profits most who serves best and I will show you a man or an outfit that is dead or dying.
Harris, B. F.
You can't run a business without taking risks.
Drexler, Millard
Never let an inventor run a company. You can never get him to stop tinkering and bring something to market.
Little, Royal
The morality of compromise' sounds contradictory.Compromise is usually a sign of weakness, or an admission of defeat.Strong men don't compromise, it is said, and principles should never be compromised.I shall argue that strong men, conversely, know when to compromise and that all principles can be compromised to serve a greater principle.
Handy, Charles
There is no substitute for accurate knowledge. Know yourself, know your business, know your men.
Jacobs, Randall
The more business one has, the more you are able to accomplish, for you learn to economize your time.
Hale, Sir Matthew
The five essential entrepreneurial skills for success: Concentration, Discrimination, Organization, Innovation and Communication
Gerber, Michael E.
Men who do things without being told draw the most wages.
Stuart, Edwin H.
Get me inside any boardroom and I'll get any decision I want.
Bond, Alan
It is surprising, in the welter of questions that one gets at (AGMs), how few actually relate to the performance of the company, or the decisions taken by the board in particular areas.
Harvey-Jones, John
It is very vulgar to talk about one's business. Only people like stockbrokers do that, and then merely at dinner parties.
Wilde, Oscar
Get the best people and train them well.
Merrill, Charles
The propensity to truck, barter and exchange one thing for another is common to all men, and to be found in no other race of animals.
Smith, Adam
Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about.
Kashoggi, Adnan
Don't try to buy at the bottom and sell at the top. This can't be done, except by liars.
Baruch, Bernard M.
Entrepreneurship is the last refuge of the trouble making individual.
Cooley, Mason
You don't want to get the same kind of advice from everyone on your board.
Cardenas, Ruben
You never really hear the truth from your subordinates until after 10 in the evening.
Jurgen Schrempp
It is much more difficult to measure non-performance than performance. Performance stands out like a ton of diamonds. Non-performance can almost always be explained away.
Geneen, Harold S.
Business, that's easily defined; it's other people's money.
Dumas, Alexandre
Quality, service, cleanliness, and value.
Ross, Steven J.
You can employ men and hire hands to work for you, but you must win their hearts to have them work with you.
Riorio
The big will get bigger; the small will get wiped out.
Riklis, Meshulam
I believe Mrs. Thatcher's emphasis on enterprise was right.
Blair, Tony
Women do not win formula one races, because they simply are not strong enough to resist the G-forces.In the boardroom, it is different.I believe women are better able to marshal their thoughts than men and because they are less egotistical they make fewer assumptions.
Foulston, Nicola
Compromise is usually bad. It should be a last resort. If two departments or divisions have a problem they can't solve and it comes up to you, listen to both sides and then pick one or the other. This places solid accountability on the winner to make it work. Condition your people to avoid compromise.
Townsend, Robert
There's a lot more business out there in small town America than I ever dreamed of.
Walton, Sam
Make every decision as if you owned the whole company.
Townsend, Robert
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
I find it rather easy to portray a businessman. Being bland, rather cruel and incompetent comes naturally to me.
John Cleese
In business partnerships and marriage partnerships, oh, the cheating that goes on.
Proverb, American
A compromise is the art of dividing a cake in such a way that everyone believes that he has got the biggest piece.
Erhard, Ludwig
The employer generally gets the employees he deserves.
Gilbey, Walter
You can hype a questionable product for a little while, but you'll never build an enduring business.
Kiam, Victor
The selfish spirit of commerce, which knows no country, and feels no passion or principle but that of gain.
Jefferson, Thomas
No sale is really complete until the product is worn out, and the customer is satisfied.
Bean, L.L.
Let love give way to business; give attention to business and you will be safe.
Ovid
My own business always bores me to death; I prefer other people's.
Oscar Wilde
If a fellow wants to be a nobody in the business world, let him neglect sending the mail man to somebody on his behalf.
Kettering, Charles F.
Anybody can cut prices, but it takes brains to produce a better article.
Armour, P. D.
