Quote by Henry Ford

The high wage begins down in the shop. If it is not created there it cannot get into pay envelopes. There will never be a system invented which will do away with the necessity for work.

The high wage begins down in the shop. If it is not created

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of labor and productivity in the creation of high wages. It suggests that a high salary or income is a result of hard work and value creation at the grassroots level.

Ultimately, it highlights the link between productivity, wages, and the indispensability of work in the functioning of society.
