| Carl Sagan (1934 - 1996) | 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. | |
| E. F. Schumacher | Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction. | |
| Edgard Varese | Everyone is born with genius, but most people only keep it a few minutes. | |
| Joey Adams | A genius is one who can do anything except make a living. | |
| Jonathan Swift | When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign; that all the dunces are in confederacy against him. | |
| Oscar Levant (1906 - 1972) | There's a fine line between genius and insanity. I have erased this line. | |
| Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) | The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius. | |
| Robert Lynd | Every man of genius is considerably helped by being dead. |
