You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.”

  • Why Microsoft can’t be creative anymore Here is a nice article posted in New York Times...
    • Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.]]>     Thomas Edison’s teachers said he was “too stupid to learn anything.” He was fired from his first two jobs for being “non productive.” As an inventor, Edison made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb. When a reporter asked, “How did it feel to fail 1,000 times?”
    Edison replied, “I didn’t fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps.”

    I have a nice feeling of gratitude towards Thomas Edison for inventing technology thats lighting up our homes everyday.

    “Sometimes it better not to ask-or to listen-when people tell you something can’t be done. I didn’t ask for permission or approval. I just went ahead and did it.”

    Found it very inspiring:

    Most of the time , life does not talk to you. It just sort of pushes you around. Each push is life saying, “Wake up. There’s something I want you to learn.”

    If you learn life’s lesson, you will do well. If not, life will just continue to push you around. People do two things. Some just let life push them around. Others get angry and push back. But they push back against their boss, or their job, or their husband or wife. They do not know it’s life that’s pushing.”

    Life pushes all of us around. Some give up. Others fight. A few learn the lesson and move on. They welcome life pushing them around. To these few people, it means they need and want to learn something. They learn and move on. Most quit, and a few like you fight.
