Famous quotes containing the word genius:

    “... it is not the color of the skin that makes the man or the woman, but the principle formed in the soul. Brilliant wit will shine, come from whence it will; and genius and talent will not hide the brightness of its lustre.”
    —Maria Stewart (1803–1879)
