Thankfully Bengt Erland Ilon disagreed with this statement back in 1973 when he dreamed up the Mecanum wheel.

I've enjoyed contemplating this idea and am delighted to see that people are finding inspiration, through FIRST and this forum, to contemplate designs. This one might not work exactly as planned, but keep coming up with the ideas. It takes courage and determination as much as it does brilliance and inspiration to be a successful innovator.

Just google... quote "can't be done" ...to see what Henry Ford and others had to say on the topic.
