He was a genius who symbolized a unifying force and inspiration for all nations in the
name of peace and science. He was a true visionary far ahead of his contemporaries in the field of scientific development.
Tesla astonished the world by demonstrating the wonders of alternating current electricity at the World Columbian
Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
Tesla was a pioneer in many fields. He invented in 1891, the so-called Tesla Coil even widely used today in
radio, television sets and other electronic equipment.
His concept of wireless electricity was used to run industry and transportation, power ocean liners,
destroy warships, and send communications instantaneously all over the globe.
(1856 - 1943)
One cannot help looking at that little bulb of Crookes with a feeling akin to awe, when he considers all that it has done for scientific progress - first,
the magnificent wonderful achievements of Roentgen.
~ Nikola Tesla
Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.
~ Nikola Tesla
I come from a very wiry and long-lived race. Some of my ancestors have been centenarians,
and one of them lived 129 years. I am determined to keep up the record and please myself with
prospects of great promise. Then again, nature has given me a vivid imagination.
~ Nikola Tesla
Out of this war, the greatest since the beginning of history, a new world must be born, a world
that would justify the sacrifices offered by humanity. This new world must be a world in which
there shall be no exploitation of the weak by the strong, of the good by the evil; where there
will be no humiliation of the poor by the violence of the rich; where the products of intellect,
science and art will serve society for the betterment and beautification of life, and not the
individuals for achieving wealth.
~ Nikola Tesla
A single ray of light from a distant star falling upon the eye of a tyrant in bygone times, may
have altered the course of his life, may have changed the destiny of nations,
may have transformed the surface of the globe, so intricate, so inconceivably complex are the processes of nature.
~ Nikola Tesla
I am credited with being one of the hardest workers and perhaps I am, if thought is the equivalent of labour,
for I have devoted to it almost all of my waking hours. But if work is interpreted
to be a definite performance in a specified time according to a rigid rule, then I may be the worst of idlers.
~ Nikola Tesla
The mind is sharper and keener in seclusion and uninterrupted solitude. No big laboratory
is needed in which to think. Originality thrives in seclusion free of outside influences
beating upon us to cripple the creative mind. Be alone, that is the secret of invention;
be alone, that is when ideas are born.
~ Nikola Tesla
The spread of civilisation may be likened to a fire; first, a feeble spark, next a flickering flame,
then a mighty blaze, ever increasing in speed and power.
~ Nikola Tesla
The female mind has demonstrated a capacity for all the mental acquirements and achievements of men,
and as generations ensue that capacity will be expanded; the average woman will be as well educated
as the average man, and then better educated, for the dormant faculties of her brain will be stimulated
to an activity that will be all the more intense and powerful because of centuries of repose.
~ Nikola Tesla
Though free to think and act, we are held together, like the stars in the
firmament, with ties inseparable. These ties cannot be seen, but we can feel them.
~ Nikola Tesla
The gift of mental power comes from God, Divine Being, and if we concentrate our minds
on that truth, we become in tune with this great power. My Mother had taught me to seek all truth in the Bible.
~ Nikola Tesla
There is something within me that might be illusion as it is often case with young delighted people,
but if I would be fortunate to achieve some of my ideals, it would be on the behalf of the whole of humanity.
If those hopes would become fulfilled, the most exiting thought would be that it is a deed of a Serb.
~ Nikola Tesla
My ear barely caught signals coming in regular succession which could not have been produced on earth.
~ Nikola Tesla
You may live to see man-made horrors beyond your comprehension.
~ Nikola Tesla
Today's scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after
equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality.
~ Nikola Tesla
I cannot exaggerate the effect of this marvelous sight on my childish imagination. Day after day I
asked myself what is electricity and found no answer. Eighty years have gone by since and I still ask
the same question, unable to answer it.
~ Nikola Tesla
So astounding are the facts in this connection, that it would seem as though the Creator, himself had
electrically designed this planet.
~ Nikola Tesla
The inventions I have conceived in this way have always worked. In thirty years there has not been a single exception.
~ Nikola Tesla

There is a wisdom of the head, and a wisdom of the heart.
~ Charles Dickens
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
~ George Bernard Shaw
You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.
