Talent Unlimited

Famous quotes containing the words talent and/or unlimited:

    One swiftly forgets his intolerable writing, his mirthless, sedulous, repellent manner, in the face of the Athenian tragedy he instills into his seduced and soul-sick servant girls, his barbaric pirates of finances, his conquered and hamstrung supermen, his wives who sit and wait. He has, like Conrad, a sure talent for depicting the spirit in disintegration.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    I only wish that ordinary people had an unlimited capacity for doing harm; then they might have an unlimited power for doing good.
