Excerpt from Rich Vs, Poor: Author's Edition
One of the many books in my library that I prize most highly is a beautiful morocco-bound volume, lettered in gold, on the "Fallacies about Genius, " published by the King-Richardson Co. of Springfield, Mass., and given to the writer by a very dear friend, the noted author, Charles E. Sargent, M. A., F. R. S. C.
As you read the following quotations about the characteristics of genius, you will more clearly understand why the world cannot see what genius can see or hear the still, small voice (1 Kings 19: 12) that genius can hear. And you will more clearly understand why the work of genius is always rough-hewn - why in the writings of genius readers often have to grope their way along as they would in following an obscurely spotted trail.
"Genius is the divine birthright of the few.
"Genius has many and unmistakable characteristics, and among them the earliest, if not the most marked is intellectual boldness.
