"Frank W. Woolworth pernah mengatakan kepada saya bahwa titik balik dalam kariernya tidak datang sampai dia terlempar karena sakit. Dia yakin bahwa bisnisnya akan hancur berkeping-keping selama ketidakhadirannya yang lama dan dipaksakan. Alih-alih, ia menemukan bahwa ia memiliki orang-orang yang mempekerjakannya yang dapat mengatasi kesulitan ketika diberi kekuatan untuk melakukan inisiatif. Setelah itu Woolworth meninggalkan banyak masalah dan kesulitan yang harus diselesaikan oleh bawahan dan mengalihkan perhatiannya pada hal-hal besar."

--- B. C. Forbes

Versi Bahasa Inggris

Frank W. Woolworth once told me that the turning-point in his career did not come until he was thrown flat on his back by illness. He was sure that his business would go to pieces during his long, enforced absence. Instead, he discovered that he had in his employ men who could overcome difficulties when given power to exercise initiative. After that Woolworth left many problems and difficulties to be solved by subordinates and turned his attention to big things.
