"Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in creating out of void but out of chaos"
Simplified meaning
Creating new ideas or inventions isn’t like pulling something from thin air. Instead, it's about making sense out of a messy situation or combining existing things in new ways. Imagine you're trying to make a new recipe, but your kitchen is a total mess with ingredients scattered everywhere. You don’t get new ingredients magically; you take the ones already available and mix them uniquely to create a delicious dish. That's what invention is like – organizing what's already around us to make something new and useful. So, if you're facing a situation that seems chaotic and disordered, look closely. You might just find the components needed for your next great idea or project right there.
