Nobody told me I was a child prodigy.
Oddly enough, my partner went on Prodigy when it first came out, and I ended up playing with some of that stuff!.
Ah, a German and a genius ! A prodigy, admit him !
You cannot imagine how it spoils one to have been a child prodigy.
Destiny, quite often, is a determined parent. Mozart was hardly some naive prodigy who sat down at the keyboard and, with God whispering in his ears, let music flow from his fingertips. It's a nice image for selling tickets to movies, but whether or not God has kissed your brow, you still have to work. Without learning and preparation, you won't know how to harness the power of that kiss.
I have never considered myself a prodigy. Others have used that term, but I never bought in to it.
There is no book so poor that it would not be a prodigy if wholly made by a single man.
I feel like it has gone very fast for me, but I feel like it wasn't instantaneous, at all. I was getting a lot of rejections. I just got very lucky and it happened quickly for me. I don't feel like I'm a prodigy or something.
I call prodigy all that is invented, all that begins to exist from the second it is conceived, it is the process not the results, the principle and not the fruits.
If Beethoven is a prodigy of man, Bach is a miracle of God.
If I win, I'm a prodigy. If I lose, then I'm crazy. That's the way history is written.
And yes, again, that was it exactly. A retyper and not a writer. A prodigy and not a genius.
Many people used to call me a child prodigy, but I never thought that. I knew that I had learned everything, that I had very good circumstances.
I have always been a singer, a writer, and a musician, not as a prodigy or as in a trade handed to me by my parents, but because of an inner voice or maybe a command from beyond reality as it is usually defined.
I was never a prodigy.
You could be a music prodigy at age 4, like Mozart, but you can't be a writing prodigy.
Prodigy only feeds on prodigy, fantasy on fantasy.
Child prodigy is a curse because you've got all those terrible possibilities.
I think it's fair to say that Nina Simone was a prodigy.
I was never a prodigy. I was never a child genius.
