    Thomas Edison was born February 11, 1847 in Milan, Ohio. He was the youngest member of his family. Growing up in a modest household, Edison’s early years were focused more on education than monetary gain. Edison was educated almost solely by his mother and himself. He ended all types of public education at the age of twelve. It is difficult to grasp the enormity of his innate intelligence when one learns how little formal education Edison had. His scientific career can be said to have started at the Grand Trunk Railroad. It was here that he first became interested in the telegraph. For six years, Edison roamed the country working in various telegraph offices. It was 1868, which was near the end of his tenure in the telegraph office, that Edison first attempted to create a new invention. Like so many inventors who have changed the world, Edison was unsuccessful at his first attempt to bring a new product to light. He attempted to invent a vote recorder, but could never achieve success. However, this did nothing to dampen Edison’s quest in the world of invention.…

Understanding the universe became an "eternal riddle" for Einstein, a quest for scientific enlightenment. "The road to this paradise was not as comfortable and alluring as the road to the religious paradise," he wrote, "but it has proved itself as trustworthy, and I have never regretted having chosen it."- www.amnh.org/exhibitions/einstein/life/ Albert Einstein was a poor student and although he did not earn top grades in every subject, he excelled at math and science. "It is, in fact, nothing short of a miracle," he wrote, "that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry." Schilpp, 1970. p. 17. Being fiercely independent, even as a young boy, Albert had already developed a deep distrust of authority. He challenged not only his teachers but also long-standing mathematical and scientific "givens," such as ancient Greek rules of geometry and laws of physics established by other scientists. Ironically, Einstein's questioning and resulting breakthroughs eventually turned him into an authority…
