"A man, as a general rule, owes very little to what he is born with - a man is what he makes of himself. "
"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."
"When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us. "

The first thing ever said through the telephone was Alexander Graham Bell saying "Mr. Watson -- come here -- I want to see you."

First words spoken on the telephone:"Watson, are you there? I need you."
According to Jay Leno, Watson replied, "Hang on Al, I got a call on the other line."
