Arthur Schopenhauer Quotes
Genius is its own reward; for the best that one is, one must necessarily be for oneself. . . . Further, genius consists in the working of the free intellect., and as a consequence the productions of genius serve no useful purpose.

To be useless and unprofitable is one of the characteristics of genius; it is their patent of nobility.
