Walter Isaacson Quote

His comparisons between man-made machinery and the handiwork of nature produced in him a deep reverence for the latter. Though human ingenuity may make various inventions, he wrote, it will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple, more direct than does Nature; because in her inventions nothing is lacking and nothing is superfluous.15
