About This Quote
When the Wright brothers first flew, people were amazed. But soon after, people begun to see the limitations of their new invention. They realized that the first model wasn’t perfect. They also realized that they wouldn’t be able to fly for long distances.
Their greatest discovery was their greatest mistake. When it comes to technology, the same thing happens all over again over and over again. The first model is great but not perfect.
As time passes, new technologies are designed that improve on the first model. Then, just as people had predicted, improvements are made and improvements are made yet again, each time creating a better model than the last. But at some point there will be a breaking point.
