Arthur Schopenhauer Quotes About Achievement

Quotes about: Achievement

• The greatest achievements of the human mind are generally received with distrust.

  Arthur Schopenhauer

  Philosophical, Not Giving Up, Never Giving Up

• Talent is able to achieve what is beyond other people's capacity to achieve, yet not what is beyond their capacity of apprehension; therefore it at once finds its appreciators. The achievement of genius, on the other hand, transcends not only others' capacity of achievement, but also their capacity of apprehension; therefore they do not become immediately aware of it. Talent is like the marksman who hits a target which others cannot reach; genius is like the marksman who hits a target, as far as which others cannot even see.

  Arthur Schopenhauer

  Hands, People, Achievement

• The general history of art and literature shows that the highest achievements of the human mind are, as a rule, not favourably received at first.
