“Society cannot contribute anything to the breeding and growing of ingenious men. A creative genius cannot be trained. There are no schools for creativeness. A genius is precisely a man who defies all schools and rules, who deviates from the traditional roads of routine and opens up new paths through land inaccessible before. A genius is always a teacher, never a pupil; he is always self-made.” MenMadeSelfSchoolCreativePathTeacherGrowingLandGeniusTraditionalRoutinePupilsBreedingIngeniousSelf MadeInaccessibleCreativenessDeviateNew PathsCreative Genius Book:Bureaucracy: The Economist Source: Bureaucracy: The Economist
