Do not be troubled for a language,cultivate your soul and she will show herself

Mediocre people have an answer for everything and are astonished at nothing. They always want to have the air of knowing better than you what you are going to tell them; when, in their turn, they begin to speak, they repeat to you with the greatest confidence, as if dealing with their own property, the things that they have heard you say yourself at some other place. A capable and superior look is the natural accompaniment of this type of character.

We work not only to produce but to give value to time

Nature is a dictionary; one draws words from it.

What moves those of genius, what inspires their work is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough.

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.

The artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in nothing.

A taste for simplicity cannot endure for long.

To be a poet at twenty is to be twenty: to be a poet at forty is to be a poet

Do all the work you can; that is the whole philosophy of the good way of life

What makes men of genius, or rather, what they make, is not new ideas, it is that idea - possessing them - that what has been said has still not been said enough.

If one considered life as a simple loan, one would perhaps be less exacting. We possess actually nothing; everything goes through us.

Talent does whatever it wants to do.... Genius does only what it can.
