We Must Become What We Wish To

Innovators And Creators Are Persons Who Can To A Higher Degree Than Average Accept The Condition Of Aloneness. They Are More Willing To Follow Their Own Vision, Even When It Takes Them Far From The Mainland Of The Human Community.

That Which We Call Genius Has A Great Deal To Do With Courage And Daring, A Great Deal To Do With Nerve.
