Thomas Edison tried two
thousand different materials in search of a filament for the light bulb. When
none worked satisfactorily, his assistant complained, “All our work is in vain.
We have learned nothing.”
Edison replied very confidently,
“Oh, we have come a long way and we have learned a lot. We know that there are
two thousand elements which we cannot use to make a good light bulb.”
