Anybody who has doubts about the ingenuity or the resourcefulness of a plumber never got a bill from one.
—George Meany
I just invent, then wait until man comes around to needing what I've invented.
—R. Buckminster Fuller
A baby is God's opinion that life should go on. Never will a time come when the most marvelous recent invention is as marvelous as a newborn baby. The finest of our precision watches, the most supercolossal of our supercargo planes don't compare with a newborn baby in the number and ingenuity of coils and springs, in the flow and change of chemical solutions, in timing devices and interrelated parts that are irreplaceable.
—Carl Sandburg
