“What's genius? I don't know but I do know that the difference between a madman and a professional is that a pro does as well as he can within whathe has set out to do and a madman does exceptionally well at what he can't help doing.”
“I know the difference between what I can't do and what I refuse to do.”
“I don't know yet what I am capable of doing, but, by God, I have genius -- I know it too well to blush behind it. ”
“Modern man thinks he loses something—time—when he does not do things quickly. Yet he does not know what to do with the time he gains—except kill it.”
“Each of us assumes everyone else knows what HE is doing. They all assume we know what WE are doing. We don't...Nothing is going on and nobody knows what it is. Nobody is concealing anything except the fact that he does not understand anything anymore and wishes he could go home.”
“People know what they do; frequently they know why they do what they do; but what they don't know is what what they do does.”
