Quote by -Tim Firris
In practice, strictly making health #1 has real social and business ramifications. That’s a price I’ve realized I must be fine paying, or I could lose weeks or months to sickness or fatigue.
Quote by -Tim Firris
I remember when I had my first real business anything in college, teaching this accelerated learning seminar. I felt richer than I’d ever felt in my life because I was making $8.00 an hour in the college library.
Quote by -Tim Firris
It is easy enough to be friendly to one's friends. But to befriend the one who regards himself as your enemy is the quintessence of true religion. The other is mere business.
Quote by -Mahatama Gandhi
We are a company that lives and breathes a philosophy that's centered on not only making sound business decisions but also personally and professionally finding ways to contribute to the well being of society. We are also a company that understands community.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
With businesses, you go to the same places because you like the service, you like the people and they take care of you. They greet you with a smile. That's how people want to be treated, with respect. That's what I tell my employees - customer service is very important.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
I really want people to know that I've worked hard, very hard, to get to where I am today.. this didn't just happen overnight. I started in business over 25 years ago and have found a way to build on what I've learned through every partnership and opportunity.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
I tell people to look at me and understand that everybody first told me that I couldn't be a 6-foot, 9-inch point guard, and I proved them wrong. Then they told me I couldn't be a businessman and make money in urban America, and I proved them wrong. And they thought I couldn't win all these championships, and I proved them wrong there as well.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
I am a businessman. This is what I do each and every day. I love it. I love coming to work. I never have a bad day.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
When you are a successful business person, you are only as good as your team. No one can do every deal alone.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
If the community is happy, then they support your business and if your business is doing well, then you can give back even more to the community.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
Being able to touch so many people through my businesses and make money while doing it, is a huge blessing.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
If you hate to lose, you do whatever you need to do to make sure you're business is successful.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
I've always studied business. Even when I was a ball player, I'd read business journals and the business sections of newspapers.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
I love business. I love helping urban communities grow. I love putting people to work of color. I love making sure - like right now the whole mortgage crisis, I want to help people get back into their homes.
Quote by -Magic Johnson
Really, I have to laugh because there was a whole set of stories that made me sound like the Dragon Lady, you know, 'tough this and tough that.' Then there is this business about 'gooey.' The bottom line is I am a pragmatic idealist.
Quote by -Madeleine Albright
"Brand is just a perception, and perception will match reality over time. Sometimes it will be ahead, other times it will be behind. But brand is simply a collective impression some have about a product."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"A company is a group organized to create a product or service, and it is only as good as its people and how excited they are about creating. I do want to recognize a ton of super-talented people. I just happen to be the face of the companies."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"If you're co-founder or CEO, you have to do all kinds of tasks you might not want to do... If you don't do your chores, the company won't succeed... No task is too menial."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"I do think there is a lot of potential if you have a compelling product and people are willing to pay a premium for that. I think that is what Apple has shown. You can buy a much cheaper cell phone or laptop, but Apple's product is so much better than the alternative, and people are willing to pay that premium."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"I always invest my own money in the companies that I create. I don't believe in the whole thing of just using other people's money. I don't think that's right. I'm not going to ask other people to invest in something if I'm not prepared to do so myself."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"I don't believe in process. In fact, when I interview a potential employee and he or she says that 'it's all about the process,' I see that as a bad sign. The problem is that at a lot of big companies, process becomes a substitute for thinking. You're encouraged to behave like a little gear in a complex machine. Frankly, it allows you to keep people who aren't that smart, who aren't that creative."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"Starting and growing a business is as much about the innovation, drive, and determination of the people behind it as the product they sell."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"Work like hell. I mean you just have to put in 80 to 100 hour weeks every week. [This] improves the odds of success. If other people are putting in 40 hour workweeks and you're putting in 100 hour workweeks, then even if you're doing the same thing, you know that you will achieve in four months what it takes them a year to achieve."
Quote by -Elon Musk
"Being an entrepreneur is like eating glass and staring into the abyss of death."
Quote by -Elon Musk
The CIA is made up of boys whose families sent them to Princeton but wouldn't let them into the family brokerage business.
Quote by -Lyndon B. Johnson
I have considered voting Conservative because I am so against the Labour party.
Quote by -Vivienne Westwood
We are so conformist; nobody is thinking. We are all sucking up stuff; we have been trained to be consumers, and we are all consuming far too much.
Quote by -Vivienne Westwood
My dad is very successful in his business. He's always been big in having hobbies and having little ways to get away. He always made time for hunting and fishing. He always encouraged me to do it.
Quote by -Luke Bryan
You want women to think of you in a sexy manner. It's all part of the business. It drives ticket sales. It's all a part of it.
Quote by -Luke Bryan
At the beginning of a dynasty, taxation yields a large revenue from small assessments. At the end of the dynasty, taxation yields a small revenue from large assessments.
Quote by -Ibn Khaldun
"I don't create companies for the sake of creating companies, but to get things done."
Quote by -Elon Musk
Information technology and business are becoming inextricably interwoven. I don't think anybody can talk meaningfully about one without the talking about the other.
Quote by -Bill Gates
The people of the United States are more prosperous…because their government embarked later than other governments…upon the policy of obstructing business
Quote by -Ludwig Von Mises
The function of money is to facilitate the business of the market by acting as a common medium of exchange.
Quote by -Ludwig Von Mises
I will never do another TV series. It couldn't top I Love Lucy, and I'd be foolish to try. In this business, you have to know when to get off.
Quote by -Lucille Ball
"The trade of advertising is now so near perfection that it is not easy to propose any improvement. But as every art ought to be exercised in due subordination to the public good, I cannot but propose it as a moral question to these masters of the public ear, whether they do not sometimes play too wantonly with our passions."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"The picket line is the best place to train organizers. One day on the picket line is where a man makes his commitment. The longer on the picket line, the stronger the commitment. A lot of workers think they make their commitment by walking off the job when nobody sees them. But you get a guy to walk off the field when his boss is watching and, in front of the other guys, throw down his tools and march right to the picket line, that is the guy who makes our strike. The picket line is a beautiful thing because it makes a man more human."
Quote by -Cesar Chavez
"A movement with some lasting organization is a lot less dramatic than a movement with a lot of demonstrations and a lot of marching and so forth. The more dramatic organization does catch attention quicker. Over the long haul, however, it's a lot more difficult to keep together because you're not building solid...A lasting organization is one in which people will continue to build, develop and move when you are not there."
Quote by -Cesar Chavez
