Other quotes by Thomas A. Edison

The chief function of the body is to carry the brain around.

To my mind the old masters are not art; their value is in their scarcity.

Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.

There is no substitute for hard work.

There will one day spring from the brain of science a machine or force so fearful in its potentialities, so absolutely terrifying, that even man, the fighter, who will dare torture and death in order to inflict torture and death, will be appalled, and so abandon war forever.
