Robert Herjavets/Herjavec Quotes
- Tough times never last; tough people always do.
- A goal without a timeline is simply a dream.
- [to a Shark Tank contestant that refused to move production out of the US, in 2012] Look, America’s the land of opportunity. It welcomes all. It’s tough, it’s tough when people lose their jobs but it’s a global economy. I think Americans can compete on a world-class scale anywhere. So whether you make it here or you make it there, you build a successful business, it’s not about “Made in America” because we’re all immigrants. We would’ve never had the opportunity to come here if everybody thought that way. And again, I’m trying not to be disrespectful because my dad was a factory worker. You know, when we came here, he worked in a factory and swept floors, for a guy who was proud from the country that… [tries to hold back tears] You know, I just remember my dad came here and worked in a factory… People made fun of him because he wasn’t American, and they called him all kinds of names, and- and- and it hurt him, *deeply*… You know, my dad passed away last year, and… I just- I always asked him what he was most proud of, and the first factory job – not when he made some money, not when he got promoted – that factory job where he swept floors… that made him proud.
- Don’t ever be enamored by what something sells for. It’s more important what you get to keep in your pocket.
- A good entrepreneur never takes ‘no’ for an answer, but a smart businessman knows when to move on.
