Genius Quotes

What is genius, anyway, if it isn’t the ability to give an adequate response to a great challenge? Picture Quote #1

The man of true genius never lives before his time, he never undertakes impossibilities, and always embarks on his enterprise at the suitable place and period. Though he may catch a glimpse of the coming light as it gilds the mountain top long before it reaches the eyes of his contemporaries, and he may hazard a prediction as to the future, he acts with the present Picture Quote #1

I think you too recognize the important relationship between philosophy and art, and it is just this relationship that most painters deny. The great masters do grasp it, unconsciously; but I believe that a painter’s conscious spiritual knowledge will have a much greater influence upon his art, and that it would be due only to a weakness in him, or lack of genius, should this spiritual knowledge be harmful to his art Picture Quote #1

That impossible dream you dreamed when you were young but got talked out of, the one you thought you outgrew, might be the key to awakening your genius. That special talent you never followed through on might be an important source of delight, the one you should commit to. That old dream might be the one thing that will bring the magic of meaning to your life Picture Quote #1

To eliminate the discrepancy between men’s plans and the results achieved, a new approach is necessary. Morphological thinking suggests that this new approach cannot be realized through increased teaching of specialized knowledge. This morphological analysis suggests that the essential fact has been overlooked that every human is potentially a genius. Education and dissemination of knowledge must assume a form which allows each student to absorb whatever develops his own genius, lest he become frustrated. The same outlook applies to the genius of the peoples as a whole Picture Quote #1

There is hardly a more common error than that of taking the man who has one talent, for a genius Picture Quote #1

What is the most overrated skill for an entrepreneur? The most overrated skill is skill. Luck is more important. The entrepreneur gets credit for being this genius, when really he was just at the right place at the right time Picture Quote #1

The secret of science is to ask the right question, and it is the choice of problem more than anything else that marks the man of genius in the scientific world Picture Quote #1

A genius! For 37 years I’ve practised fourteen hours a day, and now they call me a genius! Picture Quote #1

When you’re one step ahead of the crowd you’re a genius. When you’re two steps ahead, you’re a crackpot Picture Quote #1

The genius writer was correct. In obtaining freedom, man suddenly understands that he has shouldered a heavy burden, because freedom involves responsibility. A person must make decisions himself and himself answer for them Picture Quote #1

Capablanca was snatched too early from the chess world. With his death we have lost a great chess genius, the like of whom we will never see again Picture Quote #1

Genius is supposed to be a power of producing excellences which are put of the reach of the rules of art: a power which no precepts can teach, and which no industry can acquire Picture Quote #1

True genius can be identified by the fact that its expression changes the world into something it has never been before Picture Quote #1

True intimacy is a human constant. People of all types find it equally hard to achieve, equally precious to hold. Age, education, social status, make little difference here; even genius does not presuppose the talent to reveal one’s self completely and completely absorb one’s self in another personality. Intimacy is to love what concentration is to work: a simultaneous drawing together to attention and release of energy Picture Quote #1

For what we are about to see next, we must enter quietly into the realm of genius! Picture Quote #1

In the place where you feel completely uncomfortable, is the place where you find your genius Picture Quote #1

Einstein used science to get laid. That guy is a genius. I’ve been using money Picture Quote #1

Animals are like autistic savants. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that animals might actually be autistic savants. Animals have special talents normal people don’t, the same way autistic people have special talents normal people don’t; and at least some animals have special forms of genius normal people don’t, the same way some autistic savants have special forms of genius. I think most of the time animal genius probably happens for the same reason autistic genius does: a difference in the brain autistic people share with animals Picture Quote #1

From the very beginning I used sound business practices in everything I did. White businessman uses them to make money he’s a genius. Black businessman uses them he’s a crook. That’s the way it is Picture Quote #1

Who in the same given time can produce more than others has vigor; who can produce more and better, has talents; who can produce what none else can, has genius Picture Quote #1

You pigs, you. You rut like pigs, is all. You got the most in you, and you use the least. You hear me, you? Got a million in you and spend pennies. Got a genius in you and think crazies. Got a heart in you and feel empties. All a you. Every you Picture Quote #1

Whatever you think can’t be done, somebody will come along and do it. A genius is the one most like himself Picture Quote #1

Clearly the hardest thing for the working artist is to create his own conception and follow it, unafraid of the strictures it imposes, however rigid these may be... I see it as the clearest evidence of genius when an artist follows his conception, his idea, his principle, so unswervingly that he has this truth of his constantly in his control, never letting go of it even for the sake of his own enjoyment of his work Picture Quote #1

Wifehood and motherhood... are a bigger handicap than the average male genius would... essay to carry to success Picture Quote #1

I think you’re all mad. But that’s part and parcel of being an artistic genius, isn’t it? Picture Quote #1

The main duty of the historian of mathematics, as well as his fondest privilege, is to explain the humanity of mathematics, to illustrate its greatness, beauty and dignity, and to describe how the incessant efforts and accumulated genius of many generations have built up that magnificent monument, the object of our most legitimate pride as men, and of our wonder, humility and thankfulness, as individuals. The study of the history of mathematics will not make better mathematicians but gentler ones, it will enrich their minds, mellow their hearts, and bring out their finer qualities Picture Quote #1

To build a city where it is impossible to build a city is madness in itself, but to build there one of the most elegant and grandest of cities is the madness of genius Picture Quote #1

The world taught women nothing skillful and then said her work was valueless. It permitted her no opinions and said she did not know how to think. It forbade her to speak in public and said the sex had no orators. It denied her the schools, and said the sex had no genius. It robbed her of every vestige of responsibility, and then called her weak. It taught her that every pleasure must come as a favor from men and when, to gain it, she decked herself in paint and fine feathers, as she had been taught to do, it called her vain Picture Quote #1

If we stand for change, we can spark a popular movement with power, influence, magic and genius Picture Quote #1
