I believe quite simply that the small company of the future will be as much a research organization as it is a manufacturing company.

The test of an invention is the power of an inventor to push it through in the face of staunch-not opposition, but indifference-in society.

The future may require not so much having a new idea as stopping having an old idea.

There is no such thing as group originality, group creativity or group perspicacity.

Profundity and originality are attributes of single, if not singular, minds.

As I review the nature of the creative drive in the inventive scientists that have been around me, as well as in myself, I find the first event is an urge to make a significant intellectual contribution that can be tangible embodied in a product or process.

Creativity is the sudden cessation of stupidity.
