Motivations

Some of my favorite quotes from people of great mind

The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.

Nikola Tesla

Father of Modern Electricity

We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.

Albert Einstein

Physicist

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

George Bernard Shaw

Irish Playwright

Many people dream of success. To me, success can only be achieved through repeated failure and introspection.Many people dream of success. To me, success can only be achieved through repeated failure and introspection.
