“In 1882 I was in Vienna, where I met an American whom I had known in the States. He said: 'Hang your chemistry and electricity! If you want to make a pile of money, invent something that will enable these Europeans to cut each others' throats with greater facility.'”

Forgot about NFTs and marketing. Invent something that will enable these Europeans to cut each others' throats more efficiently.
