Business Quotes – Motivational Words to Thrive Your Business
Welcome to our collection of motivational and at the same time thought-provoking business quotes.
We have picked 50 wise words and quotes by ancient philosophers, famous entrepreneurs, business founders, and investors.
Whilst collecting and deciding which quotes to include, we had in mind those people who have novel ideas but do not act. Many people fear the risk or are discouraged because they think surely other people must have had the same idea. But opportunity, though unknown, may be just behind the next corner.
The quotes are presented in chronological order by the birth date of the author and provides a great picture how perception developed over time.
Enjoy the quotes, inspire yourself to stay motivated, focused, and remember, never give up and be positive!
