WILLIAM PITT SCARGILL
English divine (1787 - 1886)

Talent is something, but tact is everything. Talent is serious,
sober, grave, and respectable; tact is all that, and more, too.
It is not a seventh sense, but is the life of all the five. It
is the open eye, the quick ear, the judging taste, the keen
smell, and the lively touch; it is the interpreter of all
riddles, the surmounter of all difficulties, the remover of all
obstacles.
