The great creators-the thinkers, the artists, the scientists, the inventors-stood alone against the men of their time.
The great successful men of the world have used their imaginations.
Men of passion and vision are often seen as mad.
It's the risk takers that move the human race forward.
I'm for the dreamers. The only really important things in history have been started by the dreamers. They never know what can't be done.
Rational free spirits are the light brigade who go on ahead and reconnoiter the ground which the heavy brigade of the orthodox will eventually occupy.
My call is not to those who believe they belong to the past. My call is to those who believe in the future.
I remember mother saying : Inventors are like poets, a trashy lot
Men of great genius and large heart sow the seeds of a new degree of progress in the world, but they bear fruit only after many years.
All progress comes from the creative minority.
The people that always impress me are the ones that are curious about what they're going to do next.
