Talent works, genius creates.

There are two kinds of talent, man-made talent and God-given talent. With man-made talent you have to work very hard. With God-given talent, you just touch it up once in a while.

No one can arrive from being talented alone, work transforms talent into genius.

A job should employ God-given talents in a way that glorifies Him.

Talent does what it can; genius does what it must.

God gave me a talent to draw. I 'owed' it to him to develop the talent.

Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God.

Talent can be developed, gift is God-given. But artists have both.

There's that saying: 'God gave you talent, and if you don't use it He'll take it away from you.' And I always said, 'I don't want God to come down and take my talents away.' So, by using all these talents and being successful in all of them, I've always got something to fall back on.

Talent is what you possess; genius is what possesses you.
