Additional quotes by John D. Rockefeller

We must ever remember we are refining oil for the poor man and he must have it cheap and good.

Never, never sell yourself cheaply. Everyone is a product of his thoughts, thinking about small goals, will lead to small results. Thinking of great goals will win great success. And great ideas and big plans usually come easier than small ones, at least it will not be more difficult.
