More quotes by James Dyson
Failure is an enigma. You worry about it, and it teaches you something.
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. The wrong way will lead to mistakes from which you can learn and create new discoveries-the kind of original ideas that come to life when we dare to be different, keep an open mind, and have no fear of failure.
James Dyson
Enjoy failure and learn from it. You never learn from success.
James Dyson

James Dyson
If robots are to clean our homes, they'll have to do it better than a person.
James Dyson
I was frustrated as a child when I had to use a vacuum. It had a screaming noise and the smell of stale dog and a lack of performance.
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.
James Dyson
I think the search engines are the new equivalent of publishing: an enabler of information.
James Dyson
Beauty can come in strange forms.
James Dyson
Don't listen to experts.
James Dyson
[In my home workshop,] generally I'm mending things, which is interesting because you learn a lot about why they broke.
James Dyson
Today, computers are almost second nature to most of us.
