.... And of course when the first electric bulb was on, he was dazed, mystified. He was sitting there looking at it. Half the night passed, and more and more hours started slipping by. And his wife came and she said, "Have you gone mad or something? What are you doing here looking at that stupid light? Go to sleep!"
She called it "that stupid light." And it is said that Edison cried, "You call it a stupid light. Do you know what electricity is?"
And she said "I know," because she had been watching him turn things on and off, this and that. And she said, "I know - you turn that on or off. That's electricity."
