    "Thomas Edison tried and failed nearly 2000 times to develop the carbonized cotton thread filiment for the incandescent light bulb. When asked about it, he said, 'I didn't fail. I found out 2000 ways how not to make a light bulb.' But he only needed to find one way to make it work." From National Treasure

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. Genius is one percent inspiration, ninety-nine percent perspiration. Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless. If we all did the things we are capable of doing, we would literally astound ourselves.
