It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover ability in others is the true test.
God does not ask about our ability, but our availability.
The height of ability consists in a thorough knowledge of the real value of things, and of the genius of the age in which we live.
To know how to hide one's ability is great skill.
The Creator has not given you a longing to do that which you have no ability to do.
Ability hits the mark where presumption overshoots and diffidence falls short.
Ability is sexless.
Natural abilities can almost compensate for the want of every kind of cultivation, but no cultivation of the mind can make up for the want of natural abilities.
Executive ability is deciding quickly and getting somebody else to do the work.
Martyrdom is the only way a man can become famous without ability.
The abilities of man must fall short on one side or the other, like too scanty a blanket when you are abed. If you pull it upon your shoulders, your feet are left bare; if you thrust it down to your feet, your shoulders are uncovered.
Wicked people are always surprised to find ability in those that are good.
They are able because they think they are able.
The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what a man or woman is able to do that counts.
We all have ability. The difference is how we use it.
Ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.
You are the only person on earth who can use your ability.
Natural abilities are like natural plants; they need pruning by study.
Ability is of little account without opportunity.
The extent of your consciousness is limited only by your ability to love and to embrace with your love the space around you, and all it contains
No amount of ability is of the slightest avail without honor.
Ability without honor is useless.
The first requisite for success is the ability to apply your physical and mental energies to one problem incessantly without growing weary.
Big jobs usually go to the men who prove their ability to outgrow small ones.
Ability will never catch up with the demand for it.
There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognize ability.
I add this, that rational ability without education has oftener raised man to glory and virtue, than education without natural ability.
Natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability.
I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.
All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one...characteristic we must posses if we are to face the future as finishers.
Ability is a poor man's wealth.
