Pascal-Henri Poiget - The surprise of the gifted

  • (Second edition)

    "Being gifted means emotion on the edge of your lips, always; and thought on the edge of infinity, all the time..." When a gifted person meets what he imagines to be a gifted person, standards and references explode on both sides.

    Punctuated by the tunes of songs, giftedness, love, humor and music are the new ingredients of an unexpected, improbable and merciless encounter, which will shake up the last landmarks.

    Being gifted is not an advantage, not a superiority, it is a gap, even a suffering, a permanent journey between passion and reason.

    For as Erasmus wrote, "The only difference between a fool and a wise man is that the former obeys his passions and the latter obeys reason."
