Thomas A. Edison
The only time I really become discouraged is when I think of all the things I would like to do and the little time I have in which to do them.
Thomas A. Edison
I have not failed 700 times. I have not failed once. I have succeeded in proving that those 700 ways will not work. When I have eliminated the ways that will not work, I will find the way that will work.
Thomas A. Edison
There is far more opportunity than there is ability.
