Superior Abilities

Famous quotes containing the words superior and/or abilities:

    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    No matter what one says, you can recognize only those matters that are equal to you. Only rulers who possess extraordinary abilities will recognize and esteem properly extraordinary abilities in their subjects and servants.
