“Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast.”
Oscar Wilde
“There a big difference between being smart and being brilliant. Most smart people are incapable of enjoying those singular moments of clarity that will change the world, that will shift paradigms, that will forever memorialize that brilliance.”
Qui Vuong (Empowermentalist)
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Marianne Williamson
“When a management team with a reputation for brilliance tackles a business with a reputation for bad economics, it is the reputation of the business that remains intact.”
Warren Buffett
“If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull.”
W. C. Fields
“From its brilliancy everything is illuminated.”
Guru Nanak
“The most ordinary word, when put into place, suddenly acquires brilliance. That is the brilliance with which your images must shine.”
Robert Bresson
