I also believe the powerful self belief/ confidence is another must for greatness to be achieved. Without the confidence to fully embrace the idea, it would never have been realized. Self belief is imperative for success.
Thank you for this most excellent post. One of my favourite books describes this incredible achievement- I also love the open dome and watching the rain fall in the Pantheon in Rome as another jaw dropping act of designer daring from the past.
Humanity might have peaked when we were competing to build a dome. Now, we compete to build weapons of mass destruction. It's kind of sad that we have used our ingenuity to create things that destroy instead of create.
