Translation (German)
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.Nikola Tesla
Original (English)
"Müsste Edison eine Nadel im Heuhaufen finden, würde er einer fleißigen Biene gleich Strohhalm um Strohhalm untersuchen, bis er das Gesuchte gefunden hat."
