I added a quote to my favorite quotations page at http://mathoda.com/quotes, because I think it pretty much is the best distinction between talent and genius I’ve yet found.
“Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.” The statement was made by Arthur Schopenhauer, a 19th century philosopher whom I frankly don’t know much about, but who seemed like an interesting guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Schopenhauer
