Talent is able to achieve what is beyond other people's capacity to achieve, yet not what is beyond their capacity of apprehension; therefore it at once finds its appreciators. The achievement of genius, on the other hand, transcends not only others' capacity of achievement, but also their capacity of apprehension; therefore they do not become immediately aware of it.

Arthur Schopenhauer

One is the relationship with the media, which is now 24/7, and operates with a completely different intensity than even 15 or 20 years ago.
