Inventors don't have time for married life.
Nikola Tesla
Image
Optimistic people play a disproportionate role in shaping our lives. Their decisions make a difference they are inventors, entrepreneurs, political and military leaders - not average people. They got to where they are by seeking challenges and taking risks.
Daniel Kahneman
Image
Very learned women are to be found, in the same manner as female warriors but they are seldom or ever inventors.
Voltaire
Image
The liquid metal battery story is more than an account of inventing technology. It's a blueprint for inventing inventors.
Donald Sadoway
Image
It must be confessed that the inventors of the mechanical arts have been much more useful to men than the inventors of syllogisms.
Voltaire
Image
The great brainwave of the inventors of Christianity: God is love! And then? What does it change? You may always preach a god of love to men, they will make use of him to sanctify their villainies and their crimes for the good fight as well as the massacres en masse, blessing priests leading the way.
Francois Cavanna
Image
The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures, nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges, or churches, or parlors, nor even in its newspapers or inventors, but always most in the common people.
Walt Whitman
Image
The Romans were not inventors of the supporting arch, but its extended use in vaults and intersecting barrel shapes and domes is theirs.
Harry Seidler
Image
The gods, the immortals, were the inventors of death and corruption yet with one or two notable exceptions they have lacked the courage to try their invention out on themselves.
J. M. Coetzee
Image
Yet I also suspected that what I was seeing was but a part of the truth and perhaps not even the most important part beneath these faces, these clothes, accents, rudenesses, was power and sorrow, both unadmitted, unrealized, the power of inventors, the sorrow of the disconnected.
James A. Baldwin
Image
I think that the inventors can do anything they want, and nobody can say anything otherwise.
Jason Newsted
Image
Here was a torture that Greek inventors of the Feast and the Stone had omitted from their Hades: the Blanket of Self-Deception. A lovely warm blanket as far as it covered the soul in torment, but it never quite covered everything.
Jonathan Franzen
Image
What is called economic progress is the joint effect of the activities of the three progressive groups-or classes-of the savers, the scientist-inventors, and the entrepreneurs, operating in a market economy as far as it is not sabotaged by the endeavors of the nonprogressive majority of the routinists and the public policies supported by them.
Ludwig von Mises
Image
We are called the nation of inventors. And we are. We could still claim that title and wear its loftiest honors if we had stopped with the first thing we ever invented, which was human liberty.
Mark Twain
Image
It's very hard for individual inventors to get paid. For the same reason that private equity is valuable - broadly, that's a good thing - in the case of patents, many that own them aren't in a good position to take the next step.
Nathan Myhrvold
Image
These inventors were elevating the formulation of entrepreneurial ideas to the status of a visionary activity. Though forced to justify their efforts in the pragmatic language of venture capital, they were at heart utopian thinkers intent on transforming the world.
Alain de Botton
Image
In America the geography is sublime, but the men are not the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is sometimes ashamed of.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
America is a country of inventors, and the greatest of inventors are the newspaper men.
Alexander Graham Bell
Image
My experience is that inventors come in all sizes, all nationalities, all ages. The only thing I'm sure of is that inventors are always stubborn.
Robert Dilts
Image
Racial history is therefore natural history and the mysticism of the soul at one and the same time but the history of the religion of the blood, conversely, is the great world story of the rise and downfall of peoples, their heroes and thinkers, their inventors and artists.
Alfred Rosenberg
Image
You young people yourselves are capable of performing anything. Our inventors can invent in a high level. Our innovators can innovate in a high level, only if they keep self confidence and believe that we can.
Ruhollah Khomeini
Image
The great creators-the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors-stood alone against the men of their time.
Ayn Rand
Image
Calculus, the electrical battery, the telephone, the steam engine, the radio - all these groundbreaking innovations were hit upon by multiple inventors working in parallel with no knowledge of one another.
Steven Johnson
Image
The future belongs to a different kind of person with a different kind of mind: artists, inventors, storytellers-creative and holistic 'right-brain' thinkers whose abilities mark the fault line between who gets ahead and who doesn't.
