"The word ‘Spanx’ was funny. It made people laugh. No one ever forgot it." ― Sara Blakely Topic(s): Car Tags: funny, spanx More From Sara Blakely "My revenue was $4 million my first year in business, off of one $20 item." "Everything in our society is so purposeful." "Don’t solicit feedback on your product, idea or your business just for validation purposes. You want to tell the people who can help move your idea forward, but if you’re just looking to your friend, co-worker, husband or wife for validation, be careful. It can stop a lot of multimillion-dollar ideas in their tracks in the beginning." More In Car "I’m lucky because my dad taught me to be frugal and save. And that’s important because I want to know that I don’t have to take an acting job for two or three years if I don’t want to and that I’ll still be able to make my house and car payments and buy food for my dogs."― Ashley Greene "I like to put on hardcore when I have to clean my apartment, which I hate to do, but it’s motivational. I like old heavy metal when I’m outside working on my car. Music has definite functions for me."― Peter Steele "I once bought an old car back after I sold it because I missed it so much and I had forgotten that it never ran. It was a British racing car. You know, because I just wanted it back. I could only remember what was good about it."― Connie Chung
