More quotes by James Dyson
Today, computers are almost second nature to most of us.

I imported the first Mac into England in 1984 you know, the beige box. I imported what I think were the first four that came into England. I never opened the instruction manual. That was the best thing about it.

James Dyson
I've obviously used fans - I wouldn't say all my life, because we couldn't afford them when I was young, but from my 20s and onwards we've had to use fans. And I've always loathed them.

James Dyson
Don't listen to experts.
James Dyson

James Dyson
The computer dictates how you do something, whereas with a pencil you're totally free.
James Dyson
I just think things should work properly.
James Dyson

James Dyson
The media thinks that you have to make science sexy and concentrate on themes such as rivalry and the human issues.
James Dyson
China can and will be an invaluable trading partner to both the U.S. and the U.K.
James Dyson
Having a good idea is one thing, but persuading other people to buy it is quite another. Good inventors are polymaths: they think with their hands and their brains. They're experts in design, engineering and business.
James Dyson
After the idea, there is plenty of time to learn the technology
