"Life's most soothing things are a child's..." - Quote by Thomas Edison

“The first requisite for success is to develop the ability to focus.”

“My main purpose in life is to make enough money to create ever more inventions…. The dove is my emblem…. I want to save and advance human life, not destroy it…. I am proud of the fact that I have never invented weapons to kill….”

“Every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward”

“Life is something that has to be lived and not talked about.”

“The rule is to carry as little as possible.”

“Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.”

“There is no calamity greater than lavish desires. There is no greater guilt than discontent. And there is no greater disaster than greed.”

“Others may know pleasure, but pleasure is not happiness. It has no more importance than a shadow following a man.”

“Joy is always an integral part of loving. There is joy in every act of life, no matter how menial or repetitive. To work in love is to work in joy. To live in love is to live in joy... Why not choose joy?... Why not live in joy?”
