"Time is really the only capital that..." - Quote by Thomas Edison

“I make more mistakes than anyone else I know, and sooner or later, I patent most of them.”

“Inspiration can be found in a pile of junk. Sometimes, you can put it together with a good imagination and invent something.”

“Nothing that's good works by itself, you've got to make the damn thing work.”

“You made delay, but time will not, and lost time is never found again.”

“If you have something to do tomorrow, do it today.”

“Many a forenoon have I stolen away, preferring to spend thus the most valued part of the day; for I was rich, if not in money, in sunny hours and summer days, and spent them lavishly; nor do I regret that I did not waste more of them in the workshop or the teacher's desk.”

“Of little worth as life is when we misuse it, it is worth that effort. It would cost nothing to lay down if it were not.”

“The value of any experience is measured, of course, not by the amount of money, but the amount of development we get out of it.”

“There is much to be said in favor of modern journalism. By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community. By carefully chronicling the current events of contemporary life, it shows us of what very little importance such events really are. By invariably discussing the unnecessary, it makes us understand what things are requisite for culture, and what are not.”
