Everything I have written seems like straw by comparison with what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.
Thomas Aquinas
Everything I have written seems like straw by comparison with what I have seen and what has been revealed to me.
Thomas Aquinas
If Edison had a needle to find in a haystack, he would proceed at once with the diligence of the bee to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search. ... I was a sorry witness of such doings, knowing that a little theory and calculation would have saved him ninety percent of his labor.
