“A book becomes a mirror, with the author's face shining over it. Talent only gives an imperfect image,--the broken glimmer of a countenance. But the features of genius remain unruffled.

They would step out onstage and command an audience.” GuyStepsAudienceTalentMirrorsCommandSmokeBrownBack In The DaySmoke And MirrorsRaw Talent Author:Bruno Mars
