  1. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    If your hate could be turned into electricity, it would light up the whole world.

  2. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    But instinct is something which transcends knowledge. We have, undoubtedly, certain finer fibers that enable us to perceive truths when logical deduction, or any other willful effort of the brain, is futile.

  3. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    Most persons are so absorbed in the contemplation of the outside world that they are wholly oblivious to what is passing on within themselves.

  4. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    Years hence it will be possible for nations to fight without armies, ships or guns, by weapons far more terrible, to the destructive action and range of which there is virtually no limit. A city, at any distance whatsoever from the enemy, can be destroyed by him and no power on earth can stop him from doing so.

  5. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    If we want to avert an impending calamity and a state of things which may transform this globe into an inferno, we should push the development of flying machines and wireless transmission of energy without an instant’s delay and with all the power and resources of the nation.

  6. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    Soon became convinced I was right and undertook the task with all the fire and boundless confidence of youth.

  7. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    It is paradoxical, yet true, to say, that the more we know, the more ignorant we become in the absolute sense, for it is only through enlightenment that we become conscious of our limitations. Precisely one of the most gratifying results of intellectual evolution is the continuous opening up of new and greater prospects.

  9. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    The recurrence of a phenomenon like [Thomas] Edison is not very likely. The profound change of conditions and the ever increasing necessity of theoretical training would seem to make it impossible. He will occupy a unique and exalted position in the history of his native land, which might well be proud of his great genius and undying achievements in the interest of humanity.

  10. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    All repeated acts or operations I performed had to be divisible by three and if I missed I felt impelled to do it all over again, even if it took hours.

  11. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    I had a veritable mania for finishing whatever I began, which often got me into difficulties. On one occasion I started to read the works of Voltaire when I learned, to my dismay, that there were close on one hundred large volumes in small print which that monster had written while drinking seventy-two cups of black coffee per diem. It had to be done, but when I laid aside the last book I was very glad, and said, "Never more!"

  12. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    The progressive development of man is vitally dependent on invention. It is the most important product of his creative brain. Its ultimate purpose is the complete mastery of mind over the material world, the harnessing of the forces of nature to human needs.

  14. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    One's salvation could only be brought about through his own efforts.

  16. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    The carrying out into practise of a crude idea as is being generally done is, I hold, nothing but a waste of energy, money and time.

  17. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    I [had] admired the works of artists, but to my mind, they were only shadows and semblances. The inventor, I thought, gives to the world creations which are palpable, which live and work.

  18. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    Each day we go to our work in the hope of discovering,—in the hope that some one, no matter who, may find a solution of one of the pending great problems,—and each succeeding day we return to our task with renewed ardor; and even if we are unsuccessful, our work has not been in vain, for in these strivings, in these efforts, we have found hours of untold pleasure, and we have directed our energies to the benefit of mankind.

  19. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success... Such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.

  20. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    All that was great in the past was ridiculed, condemned, combated, suppressed — only to emerge all the more powerfully, all the more triumphantly from the struggle.

  21. The real #Nikola #Tesla once said:
    I had produced a striking phenomenon with my grounded transmitter and was endeavoring to ascertain its true significance in relation to the currents propagated through the earth.
