Tesla Quotes

“When a child is born its sense-organs are brought in contact with the outer world. The waves of sound, heat and light beat upon its feeble body, its sensitive nerve-fibres quiver, the muscles contract and relax in obedience: a gasp, a breath, and in this act a marvelous little engine, of inconceivable delicacy and complexity of construction, unlike any on earth, is hitched to the wheel-work of the Universe.”

“Not only did Tesla have a lot more going on in his head visually, but he also didn't use the standard vocabulary of the times, so most of his work is still a complete mystery. His strategy is on the correct track, but he stopped far too soon to see any practical benefit because he was only using a single frequency at a time. You have to use all the frequencies or at least a large swath of them simultaneously.”

“But we know that every single atom has at least several, and physicists haven't yet published a full "sheet music" for each element's vibrational resonant modes. I was astonished to find out it hadn't been. I'd been working on the assumption that they had this problem licked since the 1930s, when they discovered all these new subatomic particles, which would have used the same sort of instruments and techniques to discover the vibrational resonance modes, but nope~!”

“For electric vehicles to make an impact on climate change, they must be powered by renewable energy sources, otherwise, the powerplants producing the electricity to power the vehicles would end up dumping more greenhouse gas into the atmosphere than we are able to reduce by replacing regular vehicles with electric ones.”

“If we are to make significant strides in climate action through electric vehicles, then producing them as a class statement for the rich won't do, they must be made affordable enough to be owned by the vast population of working classes.”

“No mechanic now for modern cars, no doctor now for modern pathologies. The infinitesimal calculus of viral pathologies, unlocatable by traditional diagnostics, has entirely outstripped the mechanics of the body, just as the electronics of the modern car have outstripped the knowledge of its user. But one can imagine an electronic 'smartness' of the body (like 'smart' cars or houses) that would inform you of all its anomalies, or even, by a kind of GPS effect, of your position in the space of human relations.”

“Soy obsesivo compulsivo por naturaleza. En lo relativo a ser un imbécil o a cagarla, soy tan capaz como cualquier otro, y de algún modo tengo la piel más dura gracias a todo el tejido cicatricial. Lo que me importa es ganar, y no a pequeña escala. Dios sabe por qué ... probablemente sea algo que se sustente en algún desagradable agujero negro psicoanalítico o en algún cortocircuito neuronal.”

“Every Spring, nature teaches a class on business entrepreneurship. ....We see how capital is re-allocated, currencies are re-directed, growth is re-emphasized, and numerous life forms promote their value with re-vitalized marketing programs that implement flowers or seeds or aromas or habitability or pollination in an effort demonstrate a unique value proposition in a busy economy.”

“So why does Tesla stand out in the field? They can point to the advantage of a "bigger" Big E. Their product line's end use has benefits, and they are not shy about talking about it. There is something here for your organization as well. Ask yourself what the impacts of the actual use of your product or service are versus alternatives, and you are well on your way.”

“Nikola Tesla seemed quite normal as a kid. He developed a lot of phobias as an adult. Some were rational, as it was a time of disease, like now. Others were bizarre! He probably would have had a Dementia diagnosis later in life. He died of heart disease at a really old age (died age 81)! He is one of the longest lived scientists of his time. He is the only scientist of the time I am aware of that had studied nutrition and placed himself on a natural foods diet. Hertz (died age 36) and Maxwell (died age 48) did not live anywhere near as long as him.”

“A lot can be learned from the big companies of today. Companies like Amazon have revolutionized logistics, companies like Tesla have revolutionized sustainable systems, companies like Microsoft and Google have revolutionized data mining and data distribution, companies like Maersk have revolutionized Supply Chains, companies like Gardein and Beyond Meat have revolutionized food. Every company can serve as a case study of some kind with various lessons that can be learned.”

“TESLA’S CAT [Nikola Tesla’s favorite childhood companion] was the family’s black cat, Macak. Macak followed young Nikola everywhere, and they spent many happy hours rolling on the grass. It was Macak the cat who introduced Tesla to electricity on a dry winter evening. “As I stroked Macak’s back,” he recalled, “I saw a miracle that made me speechless with amazement. Macak’s back was a sheet of light and my hand produced a shower of sparks loud enough to be heard all over the house.” Curious, he asked his father what caused the sparks. Puzzled at first, [his father] finally answered, “Well, this is nothing but electricity, the same thing you see through the trees in a storm.” His father’s answer, equating the sparks with lightning, fascinated the young boy. As Tesla continued to stroke Macak, he began to wonder, “Is nature a gigantic cat? If so, who strokes its back? It can only be God,” he concluded.”

“I veicoli elettrici sono meccanicamente molto più semplici da progettare. La maggior parte del loro valore aggiunto - e il profitto che consentono - deriva dal software che le governa e connette l'auto al cloud e dai dati che derivano da questo. La grande inflazione, in altre parole, sta costringendo l’industria tedesca a produrre beni che si affidano molto di più al capitale cloud che a quello tradizionale. Il problema allora è questo: paragonati ai loro corrispettivi americani e cinesi, i capitalisti tedeschi non sono riusciti a capire abbastanza in fretta i benefici dell’ investire nel capitale cloud- del diventare cloudalisti- e sono rimasti molto indietro in questa nuova partita. In termini pratici, si stanno mettendo fuori da una posizione competitiva. Incapaci di raccogliere sufficienti rendite cloud, i plusvalori tedeschi soffriranno e così sarà per l’economia dell’ Unione Europea - e la sua cittadinanza- dipendente dai plusvalori tedeschi.”

“Thomas Edison was no an inventor but a very evil wealthy man with connections to the most wealthy Americans. He killed animals in order to demonize Nikola Tesla, the greatest inventor in human history. However, you will never learn about Tesla in any school system because he never wanted to be wealthy and his inventions were for the purpose of helping mankind. When JP Morgan, one of the most evil wealthy men in America, found out that Tesla wanted to give every human in the world free electricity, he stopped paying him and destroyed his invention to supply that free electricity. This is why you'll never learn about Tesla in the public school system.”

“Kirkus (starred review): A lucid, expertly researched biography of the brilliant Nikola Tesla. (Readers) will absolutely enjoy (Munson’s) sympathetic, insightful portrait. Booklist: Celebratory, comprehensive profile. ….A well-written, insightful addition to the legacy of this still-underappreciated visionary genius. Library Journal: Entrepreneurs, inventors, engineers, and futurists will find this biography inspiring. Gretchen Bakke (author of "The Grid"): Munson has provided us with an intimate tapestry of Tesla's life, personality, and inventions. Filled with quotes, and clearly researched with great care, Munson brings Tesla to life, not as a superhero but as a man—both ordinary and extraordinary. What surprised me, and proved to be one of the great pleasures of the book was to realize how much Tesla’s story is an immigrant story. Anne Pramaggiore (CEO of Commonwealth Edison): Tesla is an exactingly-researched history and wonderfully crafted tale of one of the most important and fascinating visionaries of the technological age. This book’s teachings have never been more relevant than in today’s world of digital transformation.”

“The legendary and brilliant inventor, futurist, engineer Nikola Tesla, said, “If you want to know the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” Everything is dynamic and moving, because everything is pure energy. The same can be said for tattoos. If you want to know the secrets of your tattoos and how they affect you, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.”

“Since the death of Nikola Tesla in 1943, his life has deserved a worthy biography. Bernard Carlson has delivered that in Tesla: Inventor of the Electrical Age, which portrays Tesla as intensely human. . . . Anyone, whether simply an interested reader or a professional historian, engineer, or physicist, will finish Tesla with a deepened understanding of his world, character, and accomplishments.”

“Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology.”
