About this Quote

This quote by Pete du Pont is describing the entrepreneurial spirit of the du Pont family. He is suggesting that the du Ponts these days, who are the heads of the corporations, are not as entrepreneurial as their predecessors. This might be due to the reality that the du Ponts of today are more concentrated on the business side of the business, instead of the entrepreneurial side. They are more likely to concentrate on the monetary aspects of the business, rather than the imaginative and innovative aspects. This could be due to the truth that the du Ponts these days are most likely to be focused on the bottom line, rather than the creative and ingenious elements of business. This could be a result of the changing times, as the du Ponts these days are more likely to be focused on the business side of business, rather than the entrepreneurial side.
