2. "The most important thing for a young man is to establish credit—a reputation and character."
3. "I would rather earn 1% off a 100 people's efforts than 100% of my own efforts."
4. "Don't be afraid to give up your childish ways; seek knowledge and personal growth instead."
5. "The secret to success is to do the common things uncommonly well."
6. "Do you know the only thing that gives me pleasure? It's to see my dividends coming in."
7. "The road to happiness lies in two simple principles: find what interests you and that you can do well, and put your whole soul into it—every bit of energy and ambition and natural ability you have."
8. "I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living."
9. "The person who starts out simply with the idea of getting rich won't succeed; you must have a larger ambition."
10. "The major fortunes in America have been made by selling what the people want, not just what the inventor thinks they ought to want."
