Quotes by Nikola Tesla

Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.
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.
Modern Mechanics and Inventions, July, 1934
The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.
Modern Mechanics and Inventions. July, 1934
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 per cent of his labor.
New York Times, October 19, 1931
