25 Henry Ford Quotes That Will Totally Inspire You

Henry Ford was an American industrialist who revolutionized factory production with his assembly-line methods of automobile production. He made owning a motor car both practical and affordable.

While working as an engineer for the Edison Illuminating Company in Detroit, Henry Ford built his first gasoline-powered horseless carriage called the Quadricycle, in the shed behind his home.

In 1903, he established the Ford Motor Company, and just five years later the company rolled out the first Model T automobile. In order to meet massive demand for this revolutionary vehicle, Henry Ford introduced revolutionary mass-production methods, including large production plants, the use of interchangeable parts and, in 1913, the world’s first moving assembly line for cars.
