Top 5 quotes from Isaac Newton
"If I have ever made any valuable discoveries, it has been owing more to patient attention, than to any other talent."
"I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me."
"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."
"A man may imagine things that are false, but he can only understand things that are true, for if the things be false, the apprehension of them is not understanding."
"No great discovery was ever made without a bold guess."
Top 5 quotes from Work
"It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."
"Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you're a thousand miles from the corn field."
"Never despair, but if you do, work on in despair."
"Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work."
"When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before."
