Conclusion
  • "Some day some fellow will invent a way of concentrating and storing up sunshine instead of this old, absurd Prometheus scheme of fire... This scheme of combustion to get power makes me sick to think of - it is so wasteful...  You see, we should utilize natural forces and thus get all of our power.  Sunshine is a form of energy, and the winds and the tides are manifestations of energy.  Do we use them?  Oh, no!  We burn up wood and coal, as renters burn up the front fence for fuel.  We live like squatters, not as if we owned the property.“
  • Thomas Edison
  • Quoted by Elbert Hubbard in Little Journeys to the Homes of Good Men
  • and Great, Vol. 1, page 339 (1916).
