"alent is like the marksman who hits..." - Quote by Arthur Schopenhauer

“The heavy armor becomes the light dress of childhood; the pain is brief, the joy unending.”

“A good supply of resignation is of the first importance in providing for the journey of life.”

“Whoever heard me assert that the grey cat playing just now in the yard is the same one that did jumps and tricks there five hundred years ago will think whatever he likes of me, but it is a stranger form of madness to imagine that the present-day cat is fundamentally an entirely different one.”

“Democritus maintains that there can be no great poet without a spite of madness.”

“To use many words to communicate few thoughts is everywhere the unmistakable sign of mediocrity. To gather much thought into few words stamps the man of genius.”

“A great artist is a great man in a great child.”

“I'm very secure about my talents and about who I am.”

“Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates”

“However you make your living is where your talent lies.”
