“Todo lo que puede ser inventado, ha sido inventado”.

Charles H. Duell, Comisionado de la Oficina de Patentes de Estados Unidos, 1899.

Esto es un mito! : Desmitificación

Nunca aseveró aquello. No solo eso, en 1902 dijo: "In my opinion, all previous advances in the various lines of invention will appear totally insignificant when compared with those which the present century will witness. I almost wish that I might live my life over again to see the wonders which are at the threshold"
