So it is with every new thing. Progress happens when all the factors that make for it are ready, and then it is inevitable. To teach that a comparatively few men are responsible for the greatest forward steps of mankind is the worst sort of nonsense.” -- Henry Ford

“Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.” -- Henry Ford

“You don't have to hold a position in order to be a leader.” -- Henry Ford

“Money is like an arm or leg- use it or lose it.” -- Henry Ford
