Quotes about talent

  • I believe that every person is born with talent. (Cusack Cyril)
  • There are two kinds of talent, man-made talent and God-given talent. With man-made talent you have to work very hard. With God-given talent, you just touch it up once in a while. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Talent is only the starting point. (Cusack Cyril)
  • When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me.. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Middle age snuffs out more talent than even wars or sudden death does. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Whom the gods wish to destroy they first call promising. (Cusack Cyril)
  • A talent somewhat above mediocrity, shrewd and not too sensitive, is more likely to rise in the world than genius. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Ordinary people think that talent must be always on its own level and that it arises every morning like the sun, rested and refreshed, ready to draw from the same storehouse -- always open, always full, always abundant -- new treasures that it will heap up on those of the day before; such people are unaware that, as in the case of all mortal things, talent has its increase and decrease, and that independently of the career it takes, like everything that breathes... it undergoes all the accidents of health, of sickness, and of the dispositions of the soul -- its gaiety or its sadness. As with our perishable flesh. talent is obliged constantly to keep guard over itself, to combat, and to keep perpetually on the alert amid the obstacles that witness the exercise of its singular power. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognizes genius. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Every man has his own vocation, talent is the call. (Cusack Cyril)
  • It is a happy talent to know how to play. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Talent alone cannot make a writer. There must be a man behind the book; a personality which, by birth and quality, is pledged to the doctrines there set forth, and which exists to see and state things so, and not otherwise. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Talent is commonly developed at the expense of character. (Cusack Cyril)
  • No one respects a talent that is concealed. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Concealed talent brings no reputation. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Talents go by nature not by birth. (Cusack Cyril)
  • The most gifted natures are perhaps also the most trembling. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Talent develops in quiet places, character in the full current of human life. (Cusack Cyril)
  • A really great talent finds its happiness in execution. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Hard work without talent is a shame, but talent without hard work is a tragedy. (Cusack Cyril)
  • We are told that talent creates its own opportunities. But it sometimes seems that intense desire creates not only its own opportunities, but its own talents. (Cusack Cyril)
  • There is no substitute for talent. Industry and all the virtues are of no avail. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Everyone has talent. What is rare is the courage to follow the talent to the dark place where it leads. (Cusack Cyril)
  • The great rule: If the little bit you have is nothing special in itself, at least find a way of saying it that is a little bit special. (Cusack Cyril)
  • Use those talents you have. You will make it. You will give joy to the world. Take this tip from nature: The woods would be a very silent place if no birds sang except those who sang best. (Cusack Cyril)
