More quotes by James Dyson
If you can't be unconventional, be obtuse. Be deliberately obtuse, because there are 5 billion people out there thinking in train tracks, and thinking what they have been taught to think.
James Dyson
I just want things to work properly.
James Dyson
Some of the best inventive moments are born out of 'wrong thinking'. Most people start with the right way so they all follow the same path.

James Dyson

You need a stubborn belief in an idea in order to see it realised.
James Dyson
The way the world is going, it's technology driven. And it isn't just driven by the old super powers, it's driven by the far east and new emerging economies.
James Dyson
If you invent something, you're doing a creative act. It's like writing a novel or composing music. You put your heart and soul into it, and money. It's years of your life, it's your house remortgaged, huge emotional investment and financial investment.
