Alexander Graham Bell Quotes

I Had Made Up My Mind To Find That For Which I Was Searching Even If It Required The Remainder Of My Life. After Innumerable Failures I Finally Uncovered The Principle For Which I Was Searching, And I Was Astounded At Its Simplicity. I Was Still More Astounded To Discover The Principle I Had Revealed Not Only Beneficial In The Construction Of A Mechanical Hearing Aid But It Served As Well As Means Of Sending The Sound Of The Voice Over A Wire. Another Discovery Which Came Out Of My Investigation Was The Fact That When A Man Gives His Order To Produce A Definite Result And Stands By That Order It Seems To Have The Effect Of Giving Him What Might Be Termed A Second Sight Which Enables Him To See Right Through Ordinary Problems. What This Power Is I Cannot Say; All I Know Is That It Exists And It Becomes Available Only When A Man Is In That State Of Mind In Which He Knows Exactly What He Wants And Is Fully Determined Not To Quit Until He Finds It.
