Fatal error: Call to undefined function isLitsy() in /var/www/html/inc_magicDB.php on line 425: Nikola Tesla, born to Serbian parents in a small village in the Austrian Empire (now Croatia), trained as an electrical engineer and became one of the most important and prolific scientific inventors and innovators of the 19th/20th centuries. He's best known for his groundbreaking contributions to the field of electromagnetism. In 1931, on his 75th birthday, he was on the cover of Time magazine, with the caption, "All the world's his power house," but 12 years later he died impoverished and in debt in New York City. In 1960, the International System of Units designated the term "tesla" for the unit of measurement of magnetic field strength. The year 2006 was celebrated by UNESCO as the 150th anniversary of his birth.

Mes Inventions: L'Autobiographie de Nikola Tesla por Nikola Tesla

> Babelio : https://www.babelio.com/livres/Tesla-Mes-inventions/362360

> “À ma grande surprise, je conçus bientôt que
*toutes mes pensées avaient été comme
manoeuvrées par des impressions extérieures et
que toutes mes actions se trouvaient
commandées de la même manière. Au fur et à
mesure, il devint flagrant que j'étais un simple
automate dont les mouvements survenaient en
réaction à des ‘stimulations' de mes organes
sensoriels.”
--Nikola Tesla - Mes Inventions

> “L'être humain est un automate autonome
entièrement sous le contrôle d'influences
extérieures. Délibérées et prédéterminées
lorsqu'elles apparaissent, ses actions sont régies
non pas de l'intérieur mais de l'extérieur. Elles
sont comme un flotteur jeté dans les vagues
d'une mer turbulente.”
--Nikola Tesla

> “Mon cerveau est seulement un récepteur.
Dans l'univers, il y a un coeur qui nous fournit
du savoir, de la force, de l'inspiration. Je n'ai
pas pénétré dans les secrets de ce coeur mais je
sais qu'il existe.”
--Nikola Tesla… (mais)
