"Being busy does not always mean real..." - Quote by Thomas Edison

“I get my ideas from listening from within.”

“Time is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing he can't afford to lose.”

“I have a peculiar theory about radium, and I believe it is the correct one. I believe that there is some mysterious ray pervading the universe that is fluorescing to it. In other words, that all its energy is not self-constructed but that there is a mysterious something in the atmosphere that scientists have not found that is drawing out those infinitesimal atoms and distributing them forcefully and indestructibly.”

“On the other hand, although I have a regular work schedule, I take time to go for long walks on the beach so that I can listen to what is going on inside my head. If my work isn't going well, I lie down in the middle of a workday and gaze at the ceiling while I listen and visualize what goes on in my imagination.”

“There is Throats to be cut, and Works to be done.”

“English sense has toiled, but Hindoo wisdom never perspired.”

“Leisure is the time for doing something useful. This leisure the diligent person will obtain the lazy one never.”

“The sum of wisdom is that time is never lost that is devoted to work.”

“I think songwriting is the ultimate form of being able to make anything that happens in your life productive.”
