Drive your
business, let not you're business drive you.
-- Benjamin Franklin
1706-1790, American
Scientist, Publisher, Diplomat
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.
-- Benjamin Franklin
1706-1790, American
Scientist, Publisher, Diplomat
So much for
industry, my friends, and attention to one's own business;
but to these we must add frugality if we would make our
industry more certainly successful. A man may, if he knows
not how to save as he gets, keep his nose all his life to
the grindstone, and die not worth a grout at last.
-- Benjamin Franklin
1706-1790, American
Scientist, Publisher, Diplomat
Do not fear
mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out.
-- Robert Galvin

It's better to
take over and build upon an existing business than to start
a new one.
-- Harold S. Geneen
1910-, American Accountant,
Industrialist, CEO, ITT
You can't run
a business or anything else on a theory.
-- Harold S. Geneen
1910-, American Accountant,
Industrialist, CEO, ITT
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.
-- Harold S. Geneen
1910-, American Accountant,
Industrialist, CEO, ITT
In business,
words are words; explanations are explanations, promises are
promises, but only performance is reality.
-- Harold S. Geneen
1910-, American Accountant,
Industrialist, CEO, ITT
