(sorry for not commenting earlier, I saaw the post but I did not see any comments field...)
The funny part is that this quote is IRqueen' s favorite quote!Thanks bee-zee, but I still think being genius is 100% perspiration! or to put it on different terms: it takes a level of dedication to one's work which is at least above average so you can reach the
level of genius! By above average i mean more than the 80% percent of architects around you that still stay at what they have learned and do not try to move trully forward!
[sorry, i noticed that as well, that's why i re-invite you after fixing it =]]
how come this is IRqueen's favorite quote? i thought she believed in the pure design talent...
i guess edison was right, although still it might be a humble statement of him... =] this 1% its kind of important
i really prefer the other quote [1]. does IRqueen know why he said the other one?
Oh, I think that she believes in design talent but also in the 90% perspiration that you have to put in to make it happen in a genius way! Our disagreement is this:
I believe that it is 100% perspiration and no talent at all.
ps: I think that she doesnt know that the quote is from edison!
i have something for you regarding talent... but its not appropriate for the blog.
where is irqueen by the way?
