“Genius is the recovery of childhood at will.” – Arthur Rimbaud

Don’t let a day go by when you don’t put yourself in the presence, and at the command, of genius. Of course, genius is a many-splendered thing: pianist, sculptor, innovator, leader of small children, whatever. Once you’ve chosen what “genius” means to you, you’re to surrender your intellect, your emotions [for a time] to the master. The reward? When you come back from the experience you’ll be vastly enriched!
