The man of genius inspires us with a boundless confidence in our own powers.

In every work of genius we recognise our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty

The world makes way for the man who knows where he is going.

When Nature has work to be done, she create a genius to do it.

To believe your own thought, to believe that what is true for you in your private heart is true for all men--that is genius.

In every work of genius we recognise our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty.
