On Ability

in #esteem5 years ago

All of us have abilities. We are all good at something. Find that something you are good at and put your abilities to good use. Don’t let it go to waste. Always do the best that you can with what you have got.

A man must not deny his manifest abilities, for that is to evade his obligations. - William Feather

Ability will never catch up with the demand for it. - Confucius

Each of us has been put on earth with the ability to do something well. We cheat ourselves and the world if we don’t use that ability as best we can. - Gracie Allen

Every man’s ability may be strengthened or increased by culture. - John Abbott

Natural abilities are like natural plants, they need pruning by study. - Francis Bacon

Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability. - Marcus Aurelius

No amount of ability is of the slightest avail without honour. - Thomas Carlyle

The art of being able to make a good use of moderate abilities wins esteem, and often confers more reputation than greater real merit. - Duc de La Rochefoucauld

There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognize ability. - Robert Half

We all have ability. The difference is how we use it. - Charlotte Whitton
