Famous quotes containing the word inventions:

    In America the geography is sublime, but the men are not; the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is sometimes ashamed of.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. They are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which it was already but too easy to arrive at; as railroads lead to Boston or New York.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In America, the geography is sublime, but the men are not: the inventions are excellent, but the inventors one is sometimes ashamed of.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
