About This Quote
Anne Clark has a way of putting things that makes them sound like genius advice. This quote is especially true when it comes to those with musical talent. It may be hard to please such people as they constantly want more and more from you. If you help someone improve their voice, they will expect you to give them a show every single time.
If you don’t, they will constantly complain about their career being stagnant and problems within their personal life being caused by nothing but your neglect. But the real truth is, some people just don’t have any talent. If you want to be a friend to someone who does have talent, then tell them that they have only a small window of opportunity where their talents can shine bright.
If that window closes, then it’s over for them and all the things they didn’t do because of their lack of talent will haunt them later in life.
