"Einstein was remarkable for his powers of concentration; he could work uninterruptedly for hours and even days on the same problem. Some of the topics that interested him remained on his mind for decades. For relaxation he turned to music and to sailing, but often his work would continue during these moments as well; he usually had a notebook in his pocket so that he could jot down any idea that came to him. Once, after the theory of relativity had been put forth, he confessed to his colleague Wolfgang Pauli, "For the rest of my life I want to reflect on what light is." It is perhaps not entirely an accident that a focus on light is also the first visual act of the newborn child."

Additional quotes by Howard Gardner
As David Feldman has shown, the prodigy must exhibit promise in an area that is valued by the culture and in which children’s relevant behaviors are at least noticed. If graphic expression is not valued in a culture, if children’s scribbles are routinely disregarded and discarded, there will be no drawing prodigies. By the same token, when a culture begins to attend to children’s precocious performances in a domain — as has happened with visual artistry in contemporary China — one may discover unexpected gifts.
