King Gillette Quotes
King Gillette Quotes
It is easy to give that kind of advice, but how many things are like corks, pins, and needles?
I applied the thought to every material need, but nothing came of it.
I’ve got it. Our fortune is made.
I urged the razor company to make a salaried position for me, but those in control refused to meet my wishes, giving as a reason the need of every dollar for development of the business.
The razor was looked upon as a joke by all my friends. A common greeting was, ‘Well, Gillette, how’s the razor?’ If I had been technically trained, I would have quit.
The whole success of this business depends on advertising.
The greatest feature of the business is the almost endless chain of blade consumption, each razor paying tribute to the company as long as the user lives.
We hope to have a better blade, and have it machine polished, which will improve its appearance very greatly.
There is no other article for individual use so universally known or widely distributed. In my travels, I have found it in the most northern town in Norway and in the heart of the Sahara Desert.
As I stood there with the razor in my hand, my eyes resting on it as lightly as a bird settling down on its nest, the Gillette razor was born. In that moment I saw it all: the way the blade could be held in a holder; the idea of sharpening the two opposite edges on the thin piece of steel; the clamping plates, with a handle halfway between the two edges of the blade.
