Guglielmo Marconi

The coming of the wireless era will make war impossible, because it will make war ridiculous.

I have found that when I want to send a message particularly far, I have to use the Italian language.

The wireless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the same, only without the cat.

This new form of communication could have some utility.

I am not personally a socialist; I have small faith in any political propaganda; but I do believe that the progress of invention will create a state which will realize most of the present dreams of the socialists.

Long experience has taught me not always to believe in the limitations indicated by purely theoretical considerations. These, as we well know, are based on insufficient knowledge of all the relevant factors.

In the new era, thought itself will be transmitted by radio.

Have I done the world good, or have I added a menace?

I have seen the future and it is wireless.

All the nations of the world would be put upon an equal footing.
