I had to create some good work habits and attitude.

If it took seven days to make a living with a restaurant, then we needed to be in some other line of work.

You don't have to be a Christian to work at Chick-fil-A, but we ask you to base your business on biblical principles because they work.

Creativity is a habit, and the best creativity is the result of good work habits.

I motivate what I see in young people because we employ about forty thousand young people in our various Chick-fil-A units. Some of them come to work because they need to work; others just work because they just like to work. There's nothing wrong with that.

I see no conflict whatsoever between Christianity and good business practices. People say you can't mix business with religion. I say there's no other way.
