I believe the phonograph is a brilliant invention. I feel like my invention will bring new things. Once I release my invention others will see and invent things similar. The phonograph allows you to record a message. For example I used it to record “Marry had a little lamb”. I hope my two children will see what a great inventor I am and follow in my footsteps when they get older. I hope when my wife, Mary sees my invention, she will be very proud of me. I think as an inventor it is very important to inspire the others around you. I am going to keep making marvelous inventions, and I am going to make sure that in many years the world will still remember me and my accomplishments. I dedicate my findings to my family and the people I love. ~Thomas Edison
