My impression on James J. Hill is that he knows what is takes. He knows what it takes to succeed in life and how to move on. He seems like hard working man by the words he uses. He seems like a person who will tell you everything with no filter. He seems like a very serious man who can just tell what kind of person someone is by their decisions. He can easily tell if person is destined to fail.

"Give me snuff, whiskey, and Swedes, and I will build a railroad to hell."

My first impression of James J. Hill is that he was a very honest person. Maybe a bit too honest at some points. I think he was a person who had strong opinions and spoke them loudly. Like in this quote he shows that he really doesn't care about the railroad he just wants stuff from it. He only cares about the profit and the power he gets from the railroad not the actual railroad itself.

¨The wealth of the country, its capital, its credit, must be saved from the predatory poor as well as the predatory rich, but above all from the predatory politician.¨

¨Work, hard work, intelligent work, and then more work.¨

¨If you review the commercial history, you will discover anyone who controls oriental trade will get hold of global wealth.¨

One of the reasons James J. Hill was so despised was that he had far too much information for his good. He understood why the wealthy grew richer while the poor remained poor, and how the privileged ruled over the majority of the population. James J. Hill wanted to show people how hard effort and perseverance can pay off and lead to success. Many people despised him because he was exposing many of the wealthy's secrets and authorities. He considered that hard sacrifices and dedication to one's aims were the keys to success. To my mind, he was a compassionate and generous person who just wanted to help others in their times of need.

"Most men who have really lived have had, in some share, their great adventure. This railway is mine."

My first impression of him is he is extremely passionate about the railroad. He was a dedicated hard worker when it came to his railroad, he put his heart and soul into it. His metaphor about his railroad means that it was his crowning achievement in life. To him, his railroad was a magnum opus of creation. I believe he cared more about the railroad than the people, that's why I think he was so hated.

"If you want to know whether you are destined to be a success or a failure in life, you can easily find out. The test is simple and it is infallible: Are you able to save money? If not, drop out. You will lose. You may think not, but you will lose as sure as you live. The seed of success is not in you"

James J. Hill believes that people are destined to be a succes or a failure in life. he thinks that money can determine that, wether if you are able to save it or not. but it's not just about the money, it's about the decisions you make with it. "are you able to save money? if not, drop out" my first impression of James J. Hills is that he says things the way they are, the truth. also that money determines your path for the future. and I can see why, his greatest adventures were his railroads which reuired money. which might've led him to think that money can determine if you are succesful or a failure in life.

My first impression of James J. Hill was that he gave very honest opinions. By doing that he could sometimes come off as rude. He said something and he meant it. He said those things to be honest and straightforward. He could have been a great person.

"The test is simple and it is infallible: Are you able to save money? If not, drop out. You will lose. You may think not, but you will lose as sure as you live. The seed of success is not in you." - James J. Hill

My first impression of James J. Hill is that he is money-hungry and straightforward. He thinks that without money, you will not succeed in life. He seems to care more about money than people, as many powerful people in this country do. He doesn't sugarcoat things and says it how it is, no matter how harsh it is. He charged huge fees for people who used his railroad which shows he is very greedy.

"Most men who have really lived have had, in some share, their great adventure. This railway is mine."

My first impression of James J. Hill is that he is very pasionite about his railroad. The way he said the quote made him sound like he was using his railway as a meteaphor to life. Whenever James J. Hill spoke he always spoke passionitly and openly about his oppinion. He was a hard working man that believed that once you finished working that you could continue working. To him, his railway is his great adventure, like the men who have really lived and had a share of great adventure.

You will lose. You may think not, but you will lose as sure as you live. The seed of success is not in you"

My first impression of James J. Hill is that he is talking about the truth. He was talking about whether you are destined to be a success. He was able to save money to build his railroad then when he had that built he tricked people to bring them to that railroad. He was a cutthroat man in the way he brought people from Scandinavia to a rural place that no one inhabited. He talks about how if you cant do something to help your goal then just give up. He says if you cannot make a good decision to help your company then you might as well drop out.

"The wealth of the country, its capital, its credit, must be saved from the predatory poor as well as the predatory rich, but above all from the predatory politician." ~ James J. Hill

I think this quote shows you that he was an expecially wise and stern person. Most of his quotes are pretty straightforward and a bit harsh. James J. Hill also seemed very money-hungry, he always cared about who was rich or poor. Instead of the more important matters in the country. So to me, James J. Hill was a selfish person. He wants a distinct separation between the rich and the poor and him being who he was put in a more favorable situation than most people because of this.

My first impression of James J. Hill is that he is realistic and honest. He doesn’t sugarcoat it at all because in the real world life is difficult and unfair. In a world where money and resources are the most important, if you can’t save your money for things you need to live, then you won’t be able to reach your goal. You need money for necessities, so if you spend too much on other things you won’t be able to invest in your future goals. If you do save that money then you will have a much better shot of succeeding, and if you don’t you will have a better chance of starting over and trying again. I think that he will always tell you his honest opinion, and I agree with him. It's for the better to make people who will fail think they have hope so they can fix the problem early or choose a different path before it’s too late.

"If you want to know whether you are destined to be a success or a failure in life, you can easily find out."

I feel like this quote is a very wise quote. I feel like James J. Hill was a very observant person, who just watched stuff happen with a thought of it about to happen. He could pick out who would be successful and who would fail all in the way you act. Being able to tell who is going in the right and wrong direction is very smart because you can choose who you want to hang around to better yourself. James J. Hill has to know how to tell the two between which is something other people should know that way they can fix their path from being in the wrong to being in the right mindset.

# data[].attributes.body
My impression of James J. Hill is that he will give you his honest opinion about a topic, which could lead to him coming off as a rude person when truly it May not be meant to come out so harsh. He believes that there is only one way to achieve success in life and that if you don't make much money you'll fail and there will be no way to redeem yourself. I think that James J. Hill should have been more open-minded to other ways of life because not everyone was rich like him but still lived a good life and considered themselves successful.
(I used the quote that you posted, Success/Failure).

"Work,hard work,intelligent work and then more work". -James J. Hill

The impression that James J. Hill gave was he is a straightforward person. Working is something that needs to be done to have a stable life. It contains working hard for a degree. It contains taking a test then Failing  it  and attempting it again. Working has to stay consistent to get what you want. Maybe this quote isn't the best way to represent James J. Hill. He didn't have the most respect for his workers so saying that working was his top priority is false.

Give me snuff, whiskey, and Swedes, and I will build a railroad to hell.

My first impression of James J. Hill was that he doesn't treat his workers well.  I feel like this is a thing in other empire status businesses *cough* Amazon *cough*. He lead people into believing that life would be better if they helped him in building the Great Northern Railway. He promised them land and success, but this was never to be. It is because of this, and a variety of other factors, he became the most hated person in America.

# data[].attributes.body
My first impression of James J. Hill is that he's pretentious. Was he rich and successful? Yes, but he lied to vulnerable people and used their blissness of the United Sates just to rob them in the end. It's no wonder he's one of the most hated men in America. All he did was make false promises just so he didn't have to pay people.

James J.Hill did not take that many things seriously. He wasn't the man you rely your life on, not even a goldfish's life. He thinks that anything can be a joke and nothing can be serious. This quote makes it look like he doesn't care about the railroad at all. All in all he was not liked by the people and I see why.

# data[].attributes.body
My first impression of James J. Hill was the honest tone when speaking about life. He told you how he straight fowardly felt. Although, he didn´t say give up but he told you basicslly how your decisions affect your outcome. He openly expressed how your success is inflicted by decisions as well. Also, he states you will always lose, I think this means you will have those times in life where you fail.
