Mediocrity

«Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself, but talent instantly recognizes genius.»
«The tendency of democracies is, in all things, to mediocrity.»
«Mediocrity is self-inflicted. Genius is self-bestowed.»
«There are certain things in which mediocrity is intolerable: poetry, music, painting, public eloquence. What torture it is to hear a frigid speech being pompously declaimed, or second-rate verse spoken with all a bad poet's bombast!»
«Ridicule is the tribute paid to the genius by the mediocrities.»
«The height of mediocrity is still low.»
