Thomas Edison
- Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration.
- Everything comes to him who hustles while he waits.
- I believe in the existence of a Supreme Intelligence pervading the Universe.
- It is very beautiful over there!
- We don't know a millionth of one percent about anything.
- Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
- Hell, there are no rules here — we're trying to accomplish something.
- I never did a day's work in my life, it was all fun.
- I find out what the world needs. Then, I go ahead and invent it.
- If we did all the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.
- Looking back to those times we cannot, without much reading, clearly gauge the sentiment of the Colonies.
- I have never seen the slightest scientific proof of the religious
ideas of heaven and hell, of future life for individuals, or of a
personal God.
- To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.
- Restlessness is discontent - and discontent is the first necessity of
progress. Show me a thoroughly satisfied man - and I will show you a
failure.
- We really haven't got any great amount of data on the subject, and without data how can we reach any definite conclusions?
