\nEnjoy this collection of my favorite quotes on innovation.

\n“You can have brilliant ideas, but if you can’t get them across, your ideas won’t get you anywhere.” – Lee Iaccocca

\n\u201cMindless habitual behavior is the enemy of innovation.\u201d – Rosabeth Moss Kanter
\n\u201cOne of the challenges of innovation is figuring out how to wipe your mind clean about what you should be doing at any given moment, and not having a religious attachment to what’s gotten you there thus far.\u201d – Andrew Mason
\n\u201cEverybody believes in innovation until they see it. Then they think, ‘Oh, no; that’ll never work. It’s too different.\u2019\u201d – Nolan Bushnell
\n\u201cInnovation is hard. It really is. Because most people don’t get it. Remember, the automobile, the airplane, the telephone, these were all considered toys at their introduction because they had no constituency. They were too new.\u201d – Nolan Bushnell
\n\u201cThe nature of an innovation is that it will arise at a fringe where it can afford to become prevalent enough to establish its usefulness without being overwhelmed by the inertia of the orthodox system.\u201d – Kevin Kelly
\n\u201cAn important scientific innovation rarely makes its way by gradually winning over and converting its opponents: What does happen is that the opponents gradually die out.\u201d – Max Planck
\n\u201cFor better or worse, that is true with any new innovation, certainly any new technological innovation. There’s many good things that come out of it, but also some bad things. All you can do is try to maximize the good stuff and minimize the bad stuff.\u201d – Steve Case
\n\u201cWe seem to forget that innovation doesn’t just come from equations or new kinds of chemicals, it comes from a human place. Innovation in the sciences is always linked in some way, either directly or indirectly, to a human experience.\u201d – John Maeda
\n\u201cFor good ideas and true innovation, you need human interaction, conflict, argument, debate.\u201d – Margaret Heffernan
\n\u201cInnovation is all about people. Innovation thrives when the population is diverse, accepting and willing to cooperate.\u201d – Vivek Wadhwa
\n\u201cSocieties advance through innovation every bit as much as economies do.\u201d – Geoff Mulgan
\n\u201cIf you look at history, innovation doesn’t come just from giving people incentives; it comes from creating environments where their ideas can connect.\u201d – Steven Johnson
\n\u201cSoftware innovation, like almost every other kind of innovation, requires the ability to collaborate and share ideas with other people, and to sit down and talk with customers and get their feedback and understand their needs.\u201d – Bill Gates
\n\u201cInnovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.\u201d – Steve Jobs
\n\u201cInnovation has nothing to do with how many R & D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac, IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R & D. It’s not about money. It’s about the people you have, how you’re led, and how much you get it.\u201d – Steve Jobs
\n\u201cYou have to combine both things: invention and innovation focus, plus the company that can commercialize things and get them to people.\u201d – Larry Page
\n\u201cMost companies don’t have the luxury of focusing exclusively on innovation. They have to innovate while stamping out zillions of widgets or processing billions of transactions.\u201d – Gary Hamel

\n“The enterprise that does not innovate ages and declines. And in a period of rapid change such as the present the decline will be fast.” – Peter Drucker
\n\u201cDo you know what my favorite renewable fuel is? An ecosystem for innovation.\u201d – Thomas Friedman
\n\u201cGovernments will always play a huge part in solving big problems. They set public policy and are uniquely able to provide the resources to make sure solutions reach everyone who needs them. They also fund basic research, which is a crucial component of the innovation that improves life for everyone.\u201d – Bill Gates
\n\u201cConservatism cherishes tradition; innovation fetishizes novelty. They tug in different directions, the one toward the past, the other toward the future.\u201d – Jill Lepore
\n\u201cA key ingredient in innovation is the ability to challenge authority and break rules.\u201d – Vivek Wadhwa
\n\u201cInnovation is the whim of an elite before it becomes a need of the public.\u201d – Ludwig von Mises

\n\u201cWe must not confuse distortion with innovation; distortion is useless change, art is beneficial change.\u201d – Chuck Jones
\n\u201cCreative experimentation propels our culture forward.

As any artist or scientist knows, without some protected, even sacred space for mistakes, innovation would cease.\u201d – Evgeny Morozov
\n“Innovation almost always is not successful the first time out. You try something and it doesn’t work and it takes confidence to say we haven’t failed yet \u2026 Ultimately you become commercially successful.” – Clayton Christensen
