“Sometimes we fight who we are, struggling against ourselves and our natures. But we must learn to accept who we are and appreciate who we become. We must love ourselves for what and who we are, and believe in our talents.”
― Harley King

“But talent—if you don't encourage it, if you don't train it, it dies. It might run wild for a little while, but it will never mean anything. Like a wild horse. If you don't tame it and teach it to run on track, to pace itself and bear a rider, it doesn't matter how fast it is. It's useless.”
― Elizabeth Hand, Illyria

“Talent is extremely common. What is rare is the willingness to endure the life of the writer.”
― Kurt Vonnegut

“What is most vile and despicable about money is that it even confers talent. And it will do so until the end of the world.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky
