Talent Unlimited

Famous quotes containing the words talent and/or unlimited:

    “A man is the prisoner of his power. A topical memory makes him an almanac; a talent for debate, disputant; skill to get money makes him a miser, that is, a beggar. Culture reduces these inflammations by invoking the aid of other powers against the dominant talent, and by appealing to the rank of powers. It watches success.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I only wish that ordinary people had an unlimited capacity for doing harm; then they might have an unlimited power for doing good.”
    —Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
