Nikola Tesla

Dobrosavljević Drenka

Summary

Drenka Dobrosavljević: Nikola Tesla

Engineering, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering give positive results. There is almost nothing that cannot be represented mathematically and whose performance cannot be calculated or whose results cannot be expressed in advance, based on available theoretical and practical data.
I studied a dozen languages, immersed myself in literature and art, and spent my best years meditating in libraries and reading everything I could get my hands on. I thought how terrible it is to waste one's life on such unnecessary efforts. If only I had come to America earlier and devoted my brainpower to inventive work, what I could have done! However, later in life I realized that I would not have created anything without the scientific education I received, so the question is whether my expectations regarding possible achievements were correct. My excellence in my first year earned me the affection and friendship of several professors. Among them were Professor Rogner, who taught arithmetic and geometry, Professor Pöschl, who was head of the department of theoretical and experimental physics, and Doctor Allé, who taught integral calculus and specialized in differential equations. This scientist was the most brilliant lecturer I have ever heard. This scientist was the most brilliant lecturer I have ever heard. He took a special interest in my progress and would often stay in the lecture hall for an hour or two longer, giving me difficult tasks to solve, which I enjoyed. I explained to him the flying machine I envisioned, not as an invention of the imagination, but as an invention based on fundamental scientific principles that could be realized by applying my turbine and quickly presented to the world. Nikola Tesla
