Genius goes around the world in its youth incessantly apologizing for having large feet. What wonder that later in life it should be inclined to raise those feet too swiftly to fools and bores.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Everyone has something that defines them, whether they're wildly intelligent or whether they have really big feet.
Oh, I'm not a true genius. I'm a near genius. I would say I'm a short genius. I'd rather be tall and normal than a short genius.
Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped.
Genius is not a possession of the limited few, but exists in some degree in everyone. Where there is natural growth, a full and free play of faculties, genius will manifest itself.
Real genius is nothing else but the supernatural virtue of humility in the domain of thought.
Genius is nothing more than common faculties refined to a greater intensity. There are no astonishing ways of doing astonishing things. All astonishing things are done by ordinary materials.
Genius is not perfected, it is deepened. It does not so much interpret the world as fertilize itself with it.
Genius is initiative on fire.
Genius is the recovery of childhood at will.
No one can resist the idea of a crippled genius.
