Born to engineer

As a boy Isaac Newton once built a model of a wind mill. The sails of which would turn even when there is no wind. His elders looked on him and his toy somewhat warily: was it possible for the young lad has dealing with the force of evil?

But the secret of the wind mill was quite simple: Inside the main body of his construction Newton had fixed a wheel, and there was a mouse in this wheel too.

At the age of fourteen, Newton built a water-clock which told the time as accurately as any other clock invented to date.

These were still early days for the man about whom it was later said:

“Nature and nature’s laws lay hid in night: God said, let Newton be! and all was light”
