Positive thoughts from Thomas Edison

> Genius is 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent inspiration.

> Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.

> Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

> Show me a thoroughly satisfied man, and I will show you a failure.

> Genius is one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration.

- Thomas Edison
