Time is but the measure of the difficulty of a conception. Pure thought has scarcely any need of time, since it perceives the two ends of an idea almost at the same moment. - [Ideas] To do easily what is difficult for others is the mark of talent. - [Talent] To do what is impossible for talent is the mark of genius. - [Genius] To know how to suggest is the great art of teaching. To attain it we must be able to guess what will interest; we must learn to read the childish soul as we might a piece of music. Then, by simply changing the key, we keep up the attraction and vary the song. - [Teaching] To learn new habits is everything, for it is to reach the substance of life. Life is but a tissue of habits. - [Habit] Wisdom consists in rising superior both to madness and to common sense, and in lending one's self to the universal delusion without becoming its dupe. - [Wisdom] Without faith a man can do nothing. But faith can stifle all science. - [Faith] Woman is the salvation or destruction of the family. She carries its destinies in the folds of her mantle. - [Women] Women wish to be loved without a why or a wherefore; not because they are pretty, or good, or well-bred, or graceful, or intelligent, but because they are themselves. - [Women] Doing easily what others find it difficult is talent; doing what is impossible for talent is genius. - Journal [Genius] Displaying page 2 of 2 for this author: << Prev 1 [2]
