Are geniuses born or are they created? Do geniuses crave for recognition or does it generally happen. Do they seek inspiration at all. What keeps them going? What is the main motive for their being prime-movers?
Satisfaction, I guess, is the key to living for these geniuses. While there are people who love to be called "geniuses" and to whom humility is a word unheard of; there are an equal set of people who hate recognition, who love to do what they love to do, not necessarily what they are best at, and who further care a damn for the world, etc.
Do they ever have downs in their life? Is it all a sweet and a rosy path? Do they weave wonderful theories out of their mind. Beethoven used to compose while he was roaming in the fields. A highly romantic and creative pursuit, but, is it wrong to compose with the instrument by your side. Einstein was different. Leonardo Da Vinci was as spectacular as versatile.
Doesn't it seem sometimes that God has gifted a few people with more faculties of learning than the others or is it that people do not realise that they are capable of doing wonderful things.
