“If you can't excell with talent, triumph with effort.”
Dave Weinbaum
“I know quite certainly that I myself have no special talent; curiosity, obsession and dogged endurance, combined with self-criticism, have brought me to my ideas.”
Albert Einstein
“Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?”
Benjamin Franklin
“They who lack talent expect things to happen without effort. They ascribe failure to a lack of inspiration or ability, or to misfortune, rather than to insufficient application. At the core of every true talent there is an awareness of the difficulties inherent in any achievement, and the confidence that by persistence and patience something worthwhile will be realized. Thus talent is a species of vigor.”
Eric Hoffer
“I believe that every person is born with talent.”
Maya Angelou
“People with great gifts are easy to find, but symmetrical and balanced ones never.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet.”
Mahatma Gandhi
