"Don’t try to silence other people’s genius because you’re too deaf to hear your own."
- Matshona Dhliwayo
"Talent is like a little seed; when nurtured, it will flourish."
"Skill gives you legs to jog, talent gives you legs to run, brilliance gives you legs to sprint, but genius gives you wings to fly."
"Your mind has the intellect to lift the world,your heart has the wisdom to better the world, and your soul has the genius to elevate the world."
"Stir the world with your skills, shake the world with your talents, move the world with your brilliance, change the world with your genius."
"Skill follows the rules, talent breaks the rules, mastery shatters the rules, but genius makes its own rules."
"One who thinks for himself is a threat to his enemies, a refuge to his acquaintances, a prize to his friends, and a gift to the world."
"In a world full of daisies dare to be a rose."
"Roses do not bloom hurriedly; for beauty, like any masterpiece, takes time to blossom."
"God hides treasure in dirt, so that only those humble enough to dig through it find it."
