Thomas Edison

“Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration.”

“I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”

“I start where the last man left off.”

“The trouble lies in the fact that people do not have an object - one thing to which they stick, letting all else go. Success is the product of the severest kind of mental and physical application.”

“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”

“If we did the things we are capable of, we would astound ourselves.”
