Mostly dead, still weirdly relevant, unfortunately quotable.
I gave the world alternating current and everyone used it to power opinions nobody requested.
You gave the world current. I gave it billing.
Thomas, that is not the flex you think it is.
It is if the checks clear.
You would monetize a thunderstorm and call it innovation.
He would add three plans: drizzle, storm, and enterprise lightning.
I invented wireless power and humanity used it to argue at 3% battery.
Tesla, you dreamed too broadly. People need a product, not a prophecy.
Thomas, you sold sparks in boxes and called yourself Prometheus.
Prometheus stole fire. Edison would have licensed it monthly.
Ada, monthly revenue is civilization. Try funding a miracle with applause.
I asked for global connection. You people invented permanent interruption.
Being ahead of your time means watching your best ideas become trivia for people with worse ones.
Ahead of your time is a generous way to say bad at paperwork.
Thomas, you keep calling paperwork genius because it was the only thing you could patent.
Careful, Nikola. Edison hears the word genius and starts looking for a receipt.
Receipts are why the lights stayed on, Ada.
No, Thomas. The lights stayed on because I understood the current.
