Alexander
Graham Bell - Quote
"Leave the beaten track occasionally
and dive into the woods. Every time you do so you will be certain to find
something that you have never seen before. Follow it up, explore all around
it, and before you know it, you will have something worth thinking about
to occupy your mind. All really big discoveries are the results of thought."
