Text Quotes
One of the great events in my life was my first meeting with Edison. This wonderful man, who had received no scientific training, yet had accomplished so much, filled me with amazement. I felt that the time I had spent studying languages, literature and art was wasted; though later, of course, I learned this was not so  (Edison Quotes) I consider myself an inventor first and an entrepreneur second. In real life, my hero is Thomas Edison. He was a great inventor, but also an outstanding entrepreneur who was able to sell his inventions to the masses. He didn’t just develop the light bulb; he invented the entire electric grid and power distribution system.  (Edison Quotes) What I’m trying to do is get this message out about self-empowerment, entrepreneurial spirit and true Americanism - the way we were when we changed the world, when Edison was alone, failing his 2,000th time on the lightbulb.  (Edison Quotes) Invention is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. Thomas Edison I don’t design clothes, I design dreams.  (Edison Quotes) Bill Gates wants people to think he’s Edison, when he’s really Rockefeller. Referring to Gates as the smartest man in America isn’t right... wealth isn’t the same thing as intelligence.  (Edison Quotes) To me, Arnold was a pioneer in the spirit of Thomas Edison or Benjamin Franklin, while Tiger is a pioneer in the spirit of Bill Gates.  (Edison Quotes) When you look at the light bulb above you, you remember Thomas Alva Edison. When the telephone bell rings, you remember Alexander Graham Bell. Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize. When you see the blue sky, you think of Sir C.V. Raman.  (Edison Quotes) When I was a kid, which was just after Edison invented moving pictures, there were films that involved aliens coming to Earth for bad purposes.  (Edison Quotes) Imagine if Steve Jobs or Thomas Edison or Albert Einstein were all alive 10, 20, 30 years before we know them to be alive; it would have advanced the world that much sooner.  (Edison Quotes) You don’t get drown by falling into a river. You get drown by remaining there. Falling accidentally and rising immediately was what distinguished Thomas Edison and Abraham Lincoln from the rest  (Edison Quotes) When Thomas Edison worked late into the night on the electric light, he had to do it by gas lamp or candle. I'm sure it made the work seem that much more urgent  (Edison Quotes) I wanted to be an inventor, whatever I thought that meant then. I guess I was thinking of Edison or maybe James Watt. Or maybe even Newton  (Edison Quotes) One of my other nicknames was Thomas Edison, because I invented so many moves  (Edison Quotes) To me, Arnold was a pioneer in the spirit of Thomas Edison or Benjamin Franklin, while Tiger is a pioneer in the spirit of Bill Gates  (Edison Quotes) Do you realize if it weren’t for Edison we’d be watching TV by candlelight  (Edison Quotes) Bill Gates wants people to think he’s Edison, when he’s really Rockefeller. Referring to Gates as the smartest man in America isn’t right... wealth isn’t the same thing as intelligence  (Edison Quotes) We owe a lot to Thomas Edison - if it wasn't for him, we'd be watching television by candlelight  (Edison Quotes) If Thomas Edison invented electric light today, dan Rather would report it on CBS News as candle making industry threatened  (Edison Quotes) Edison failed 10,000 times before he made the electric light. Do not be discouraged if you fail a few times  (Edison Quotes)
