All LORD CHESTERFIELD Quotes about “Genius”

  • “The power of applying attention, steady and undissipated, to a single object, is the sure mark of superior genius.”

  • “Without any extraordinary effort of genius, I have discovered that nature was the same three thousand years ago as at present; that men were but men then as well as now; that modes and customs vary often, but that human nature is always the same. And I can no more suppose, that men were better, braver, or wiser, fifteen hundred or three thousand years ago, than I can suppose that the animals or vegetables were better than they are now.”
