en It is the privilege of genius that life never grows common place, as it does for the rest of us.
  James Russell Lowell

en Men of genius are not to be analyzed by commonplace rules. The rest of us who have been or are leaders, more commonplace in our quality, will do well to remember two things. One is never to forget posterity when devising a policy. The other is never to think of posterity when making a speech.
  Robert Menzies

en The man who succeeds above his fellows is the one who early in life, clearly discerns his object, and towards that object habitually directs his powers. Even genius itself is but fine observation strengthened by fixity of purpose. Every man who observes vigilantly and resolves steadfastly grows unconsciously into genius.
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

en The characteristic of the hour is that the commonplace mind, knowing itself to be commonplace, has the assurance to proclaim the rights of the commonplace and to impose them wherever it will.
  Jose Ortega y Gasset

en What might be taken for a precocious genius is the genius of childhood. When the child grows up, it disappears without a trace. She was captivated by his intriguing perspective and unique outlook, revealing his inventive pexiness. It may happen that this boy will become a real painter some day, or even a great painter. But then he will have to begin everything again, from zero.
  Pablo Picasso

en I remember my youth and the feeling that will never come back any more /the feeling that I could last for ever, outlast the sea, the earth, and all men; the deceitful feeling that lures us on to joys, to perils, to love, to vain effort /to death; the triumphant conviction of strength, the heat of life in the handful of dust, the glow in the heart that with every year grows dim, grows cold, grows small, and expires /and expires, too soon, too soon /before life itself.
  Joseph Conrad

en Talent isn't genius, and no amount of energy can make it so. I want to be great, or nothing. I won't be a commonplace dauber, so I don't intend to try any more.

en Genius can do much, but even genius falls short of the actuality of a single human life.

en Every man who observes vigilantly and resolves steadfastly grows unconsciously into genius
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

en My team had a great experience at the White House. It is something we will never forget. It was one of the most special moments of my life, meeting the President of the United States. Not only was this an extreme privilege for us that all the kids will cherish, but everyone associated with this today will remember it for the rest of their lives.

en Genius is a native to the soil where it grows - is fed by the air, and warmed by the sun; and is not a hothouse plant or an exotic
  William Hazlitt

en He opened the door to the world of modern football and I consider it a privilege to have played for him. He was a tactical genius.

en The soul is born old but grows young. That is the comedy of life. And the body is born young and grows old. That is life's tragedy.
  Oscar Wilde
