King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

Genius vs Talent

Every man who observes vigilantly and resolves steadfastly grows unconsciously into genius.

Though talent does what it can; genius does what it must.

In life, chance happens to all, but to turn chance to account is the gift of few.

In fact, there is no such thing as luck. It's a fancy name for being always at our duty, and so sure to be ready when good time comes.

- Edward Bulwer Lytton
