This book is an anthology of 92 quotes from Thomas Edison and 70 selected by Blago Kirov facts about Thomas Edison.

I start where the last man left off.

All bibles are man-made.

Great ideas originate in the muscles.

I am proud of the fact that I never invented weapons to kill.

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

Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success.

Discontent is the first necessity of progress.

Thomas Edison was home-schooled.

The Edison's kinetoscope was a machine where you put in a coin, look through a peephole in a cabinet, and watch a short motion picture.

Thomas Edison reportedly drank "wine coca" - a medicinal tonic made from coca leaves, the same type of coca that cocaine is extracted from - during marathon research sessions that ran into the night.

Using a primitive cylinder and foil device, Thomas Edison created the first known recording of a human voice: his own, reciting the poem "Mary Had A Little Lamb".

Thomas Edison was close friend of Henry Ford.

Nikola Tesla briefly worked for Edison as a technician but quit after arguing with Thomas Edison one too many times.

Thomas Edison built his own science laboratory at the age of 10. This was built in the basement of his home.
