Genius is intensity. The man who gets
anything worth having is the man who goes
after his object as a bulldog goes after
a cat - with every fiber in him tense
with eagerness and determination.

But the fact that some geniuses were
laughed at does not imply that all
who are laughed at are geniuses.
They laughed at Columbus, they laughed
at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers.
But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Nobody in the game of football
should be called a genius. A genius is

It forgives everything except genius.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger,
more complex, and more violent. It takes
a touch of genius - and a lot of courage -
to move in the opposite direction.

Genius hath electric power
which earth can never tame.
?Lydia M Child
Great spirits have always encountered
violent opposition from mediocre minds.

The genius of you Americans is that you
never make clear-cut stupid moves, only
complicated stupid moves which make us
wonder at the possibility that there may be
something to them which we are missing.
