A Friendship Founded on Business

John D. Rockefeller

7/8/1839 - 5/23/1937

Businessman, philanthropist

A friendship that is created from working together is better that starting a business with a friend.

Thoughts regarding this quote: In a friendship-based on business, decisions tend to be made based on merit, rather than personal preferences. Preservation of the Friendship: By prioritizing the business aspect, friends can protect their personal relationship. Disagreements in business are less likely to escalate into irreparable personal conflicts.

Rockefeller, aged 86, wrote the following words to sum up his life:
I was early taught to work as well as play,
My life has been one long, happy holiday;
Full of work and full of play—
I dropped the worry on the way—
And God was good to me everyday.
