I never pick up an item without thinking of how I might improve it.

I have been at work for some time building an apparatus to see if it is possible for personalities which have left this earth to communicate with us.

Education isn't play--and it can't be made to look like play. It is hard, hard work. But it can be made interesting work.

Being busy does not always mean real work.

I am 67, but I'm not too old to make a fresh start.

Today, I am wondering what would have happened to me by now, if, fifty years ago, some fluent talker had converted me to the theory of the eight-hour day and convinced me that it was not fair to my fellow-workers to put forth my best efforts in my work? I am glad that the eight-hour day had not been invented when I was a young man. If my life had been made up of eight-hour days, I don't believe I could have accomplished a great deal.

Personally, I enjoy working about 18 hours a day. Besides the short catnaps I take each day, I average about four to five hours of sleep per night.
