A few of the sublimest geniuses of Rome and Athens had some faint discoveries of the spiritual nature of the human soul, and formed some probable conjectures, that man was designed for a future state of existence.
David Brainerd
A particularly fine head on a man usually means that he is stupid; particularly deep philosophers are usually shallow thinkers; in literature, talents not much above the average are usually regarded by their contemporaries as geniuses.
Robert Musil
Anyone can escape into sleep, we are all geniuses when we dream, the butcher's the poet's equal there.
Emile M. Cioran
Australians are geniuses with a good sense of humour.
Fred Schneider
But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.
Carl Sagan
Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
Georg C. Lichtenberg
Fools ignore complexity. Pragmatists suffer it. Some can avoid it. Geniuses remove it.
Alan Perlis
From the naturalistic point of view, all men are equal. There are only two exceptions to this rule of naturalistic equality: geniuses and idiots.
Mikhail Bakunin
Genius is an overused word. The world has known only about a half dozen geniuses. I got only fairly near.
Fritz Kreisler
Geniuses always think it's easier than we make it out to be.
James Lipton
Geniuses are the luckiest of mortals because what they must do is the same as what they most want to do.
W. H. Auden
Great geniuses have the shortest biographies.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I feel very fortunate to have been associated with people such as Rodgers and Hammerstein. I think they were geniuses of their time.
Shirley Jones
I realized what you could do in motion pictures by surrounding yourself with geniuses.
Richard Donner
I think one of the geniuses of Bound and The Matrix and Memento is the complete collaboration of the effort. There were no rotten apples.
Joe Pantoliano
I've played three presidents, three saints and two geniuses - and that's probably enough for any man.
Charlton Heston
If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.
Albert Einstein
It's not that complicated. If you hear something and it makes you want to hear it again, that's the ticket. You have to be lucky enough to find geniuses, welcome them and get out of their way.
Jerry Moss
My books are like water; those of the great geniuses are wine. (Fortunately) everybody drinks water.
Mark Twain
