| there is this 13 year old boy in my Differential Equations class. I don't know how much I have to perspire, but I doubt that most 13 year old can do what he can do. |

| I agree with you. Thomas Edison just wanted to tell us that sometimes perspiration was much more important than inspiration. Because inspiration is a thing that we cannot change. Just like the opportunity, yes, of cause, we have opportunities, and whether or not we can grab the opportunities, that is up to us. But if you miss an opportunity, will you be sure that another one will definitely come next time? So it is undeniable that inspiration is derived at random. What we can do now is just improving our own skills. That is to say, if you are industrious, intelligent and inspired, you MAY BE successful. But if you just keep waiting for the inspiration coming, and not to study, you will absolutely lose! No doubt! So buddy, don't be so serious. Relax! Edison just wanted us to know how important the perspiration is! Thank you. |
