Malcolm Forbes quotes about
It is all one to me if a man comes from Sing Sing Prison or Harvard. We hire a man, not his history.
If you never budge, don't expect a push.
Being right half the time beats being half-right all the time.
None of my other investments give me the joy that autographs do because they make me feel that I am holding a piece of history in my hands.
The more sympathy you give, the less you need.
To live your life in the fear of losing it is to lose the point of life.
One who never asks either knows everything or nothing.
Those who enjoy responsibility usually get it; those who merely like exercising authority usually lose it.
There is never enough time, unless you're serving it.
To measure the man, measure his heart.
I made my money the old-fashioned way. I was very nice to a wealthy relative right before he died.
Let your children go if you want to keep them.
We'd all like to be taken for what we'd like to be.
People who can’t see without glasses should wear them.
