Benjamin Disraeli on genius

Where knowledge ends, religion begins.

The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.

Change is inevitable. Change is constant.

Not great understanding alone, not intelligence alone, nor both together, make genius. Love! Love! Love! that is the soul of genius.

Genius without education is like silver in the mine.

Benjamin Franklin1706–1790Poor Richard’s Almanack

• Education

Genius is one per cent inspiration, ninety-nine per cent perspiration.

Thomas Edison1847–1931
