Most of my ideas belonged to other people who never bothered to develop them.

A good idea is never lost. Even though its originator or possessor may die, it will someday be reborn in the mind of another.

I am long on ideas, but short on time. I expect to live to be only about a hundred.

Keep on the lookout for novel ideas that others have used successfully. Your idea has to be original only in its adaptation to the problem you're working on.

I've realized that most of my best ideas have followed a good night's sleep.

My principal business is giving commercial value to the brilliant - but misdirected - ideas of others.
