Elektroinštitut Milan Vidmar

"An Engineer should above all be a human being. If he has not yet reached this stage, he should make an effort to arrive to it. He should therefore search in solving of his problems for beauty as well as truth, and in the transitoriness of his life work he should aspire to what is eternal..."
