Quotes·Quotations by Lee Iacocca
Business
¶ In the end, all business operations can be reduced to three words: people, products, and profits. People come first. Unless you've got a good team, you can't do much with the other two.
Success
¶ Success comes not from what you know, but from who you know and how you present yourself to each of those people.
