“Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent”
Thomas Alva Edison
“The greatest Electrical Pioneer of them all was Thomas Edison... Edison's first major invention, in 1877, was the phonograph, which could soon be found in thousands of American homes, where it basically sat until 1923, when the record was invented.”
Dave Barry
“To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk.”
“I never did anything worth doing by accident; nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work”
“One of my other nicknames was Thomas Edison, because I invented so many moves.”
Earl Monroe
“Do you realize if it weren't for Edison we'd be watching TV by candlelight?”
Al Boliska
“Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless.”
