Ron Joyce Quotes

The amazing part of this story is that a young kid can leave small-town Nova Scotia at an early age, and be successful working hard at what he believed in…It’s a great story of what you can achieve in this country.

The idea of using frozen products thoroughly disappointed me. It wouldn't be done in Tim Hortons restaurants if I still owned the company, even if, in the long run, it may have been the best way to operate the chain.

When you find the niche you love, that becomes your passion. For me it was Tim Hortons. It was my world.

She wanted the benefits that came with a strong work ethic, but I always felt she wasn’t willing to put up with the sacrifices I needed to make to obtain them.

I think people who excel in anything are often totally dedicated to it, but are only really good at one thing.

I look at the great athletes of all time, like Michael Jordan, who went from basketball to baseball and it didn't work. Or Wayne Gretzky, who probably wouldn't have been great at anything but hockey.

If you love the game, it doesn't matter if you play badly. It is still a wonderful way to spend a day. There are days when I get so damned mad at myself when playing, but then I can hardly wait to get back on the course.

I look at a player…who shoots three or four over par, and I think that must be nice. But it is also quite nice just to go out there and play.

In many ways I guess if I had to do it again, I wouldn’t have sold it. I would have stayed with it. But that is hindsight.

It took me awhile to get over it.

It was just another example of how weak the company’s management was.

It’s something I wanted to do. Part of it is giving back to where I grew up. But this is a wonderful place for people to come. And I’m having fun.

It was clear that he didn’t know the business all that well and couldn’t help me with any of the problems we were having. Tim had no expertise whatsoever, so the burden fell squarely on me.

It was my philosophy to treat the franchise owners as partners.
