There's some smart people out there. But most of us are simply lucky. I never mistake my luck for genius.

Geniuses can always seem to have a dark side because nothing will stop them from achieving their goal(s). But, I don't think any real perceived genius has ever self proclaimed themselves as such. Just like being enlightened.
