Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

KATIE CASSIDY AND STEPHEN HUSZAR STAR IN ‘A ROYAL CHRISTMAS CRUSH,’ A NEW, ORIGINAL MOVIE PREMIERING JULY 8, ON HALLMARK CHANNEL

Part of the Network’s Annual Christmas in July Programming Event

STUDIO CITY, CA – June 9, 2023 – Katie Cassidy (“Arrow,” “Gossip Girl”) and Stephen Huszar (“Love in Glacier National: A National Park Romance,” “Chesapeake Shores,”) star in “A Royal Christmas Crush,” a new, original movie premiering Saturday, July 8 (8 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel, as part of the network’s annual Christmas in July programming event.

Ava Jensen (Cassidy) is a talented architect who joins her beloved Uncle Karl (Charlie Ebbs, “Six Degrees of Santa”), in the enchanting frozen kingdom of Fríðrland to build an elaborate ice castle for the Royal Family – a tradition going back almost 200 years. Every year, the Royal Family gathers at the ice castle to relax and get away while they prepare for the annual Royal Christmas Ball.

Aforismi sulla genialità

Leonardo Da Vinci Aforismi sulla genialità, citazioni, frasi, massime, idee sul genio, la genialità e la creatività, pensieri brevi che possono stimolare le nostre abilità e conoscenze. Se desideriamo conoscere la forza del genio umano dobbiamo leggere Shakespeare. Se vogliamo constatare quanto sia insignificante l'istruzione umana possiamo studiare i suoi commentatori. William Hazlitt Genio è un'infinita capacità di sopportare il dolore. Jane Ellice Hopkins Nullum magnum ingegnum sine mixtura dementiae fuit. Seneca We are all born mad. Some have the fortune to remain so. Carl William Brown Via Ionesco L'amore passionale per una donna o per un uomo è una cosa strana, misteriosa, subdola, stupida, incompleta. Gli unici amori che meritano sono forse quelli del genio. Carl William Brown Ogni genio è un gran fanciullo, già per il suo guardare al mondo come a un che di estraneo. Chi nella vita non resta per qualche verso un fanciullo e diventa invece un uomo serio, sobrio, posato e ragionevole, sarà certo un bravo e utilecittadino di questo mondo, ma un genio non sarà mai. Arthur Schopenhauer A differenza del talento del genio, la stupidità non può essere nascosta: appartiene alla sua natura l’urgenza di manifestarsi. Mario Andrea Rigoni Genio: inutile ammirarlo, è una nevrosi. G. Flaubert La grandezza del genio sta nella sua capacità di fare connessioni tra idee apparentemente disparate. Nikola Tesla La qualità principale del genio non è la perfezione ma l’originalità, l’apertura di nuovi confini. Arthur Koestler Ricercate nell’albumina di Cartesio i segni del genio. A. Huxley Come ha potuto un genio come Freud scrivere tutti quei libri dimenticandosi allo stesso tempo di elaborare una benché minima teoria della stupidità; ma forse intendeva andarci vicino quando scrisse Il problema economico del masochismo. Carl William Brown Compensate con onori e favori quelli che con la loro lampada notturna rischiarano il mondo. H. von Kleist

Dante Alighieri Si considerava un genio e forse lo era, o lo è; il primo libro che scrisse lo fece leggere ad un insigne professore che dopo averlo in larga parte copiato lo pubblicò con grande successo di pubblico e di critica. Carl William Brown Un monologo in cui parla tutta una nazione o una razza o parla una voce della natura, ecco il genio. G. Bovio Il genio richiede la solitudine, questo è il segreto dell'inventiva. Nikola Tesla Il genio è la capacità di vedere dieci cose là dove l’uomo comune ne vede solo una, e dove l’uomo di talento ne vede due o tre. Ezra Pound Le nazioni hanno grandi uomini a loro dispetto, come le famiglie. Fanno ogni sforzo per non averne. C. Baudelaire È che so fare tutto quello che tu fai Ma anche altre cose che tu non immagini. M. Schettini Come si sa, funzione propria del genio è fornire idee ai cretini vent’anni dopo. L. Aragon La memoria, la velocità di calcolo, la precisione, tutte cose che non riescono a competere con la creatività della genialità. Carl William Brown Il potere non è che lo stupido tentativo dell’umanità di sopravvivere alla sua banalità, è lo sterile e ingenuo tentativo di imbalsamare la trasformazione della materia, di contenere l’assurda e inconcepibile energia della problematica genialità. Carl William Brown Un uomo di genio è femminile. H. Utamaro Quando nel mondo appare un nuovo genio potete riconoscerlo da questo segno inequivoco: tutti i mediocri si coalizzano contro di lui. J. Swift Mentre per l’uomo comune il proprio patrimonio conoscitivo è la lanterna che illumina la strada, per l’uomo geniale è il sole che rivela il mondo. A. Schopenhauer Il genio è la capacità di mettere in pratica ciò che si ha nella mente. Non c’è altra definizione del genio. F.S. Fitzgerald Il genio di Shakespeare sta nell'aver fatto osservare con grande maestria la grande buffonata dell'esperienza umana e nell'aver analizzato blandamente le cause che sconvolgono l'ordine naturale e la serenità del mondo, la sua stupidità consiste invece nel non averci prospettato quale sia questa grande armonia. Carl William Brown Il primo grande ribelle della storia è un angelo, satana, al quale non andava troppo a genio lo strapotere di dio; benché sconfitto egli rimane pur sempre immortale, così come la ribellione ed il male. Carl William Brown Il genio è nonconformismo. V. Nabokov Il Genio è un gran dolore. A. de Lamartine Le grandi idee sono rarissime: vengono come doni degli dei alle menti preparate e non sono il risultato di pure e semplici sgobbate. P. Samuelson Coloro che hanno disturbato il sonno del mondo. Ch. F. Hebbel Diventa necessario, quasi fatale, che alla forma in tante direzioni più evoluta del genio, corrisponda un arresto, un regresso, non solo in altre direzioni, ma anche spesso nell’organo che è la sede della maggiore evoluzione. C. Lombroso Nullum magnum ingegnum sine mixtura dementiae fuit. Seneca Secondo me il genio consiste nell’abilità di dire una cosa profonda in modo semplice. Ch. Bukowski

Albert Einstein È in grado di accendere un fuoco con uno strofinaccio bagnato. H. Walpole Il mondo chiama folli quelli che non lo sono della follia comune. R. Rolland Il genio si muove nella follia, nel senso che si tiene a galla là dove il demente annega. Paul Valéry Adam Smith non era certo un genio della filosofia, però aveva ben chiari alcuni principi; per esempio, nella sua opera principale esprime con convinzione l'idea che nel processo produttivo ai lavoratori deve essere concesso il minimo necessario per sopravvivere, e poi basta affidarsi al "laisser faire" di imprenditori e governanti e tutto andrà per il meglio. Non c'è che dire, un vero economista della filantropia. Carl William Brown Talvolta è preferibile isolarsi piuttosto che contaminare il proprio genio con la perniciosa arroganza della stupidità e della sciocca e colta vanità. Carl William Brown Il peggio che può capitare a un genio è di essere compreso. E. Flaiano Attenzione a quando il gran Dio scatena un pensatore su questa terra. R.W. Emerson Alcuni credono che il genio sia ereditario. Gli altri non hanno bambini. Marcel Achard Come si sa, funzione propria del genio è fornire idee ai cretini vent'anni dopo. Louis Aragon Troppo spesso il vizio e il genio producono effetti simili, che ingannano l'uomo comune. Il genio non è forse un eccesso costante che divora tempo, denaro, corpo, e conduce all'ospedale ancor più rapidamente delle cattive passioni? Honoré de Balzac Sembra che gli uomini abbiano addirittura più rispetto per i vizi che per il genio, giacché rifiutano di dargli credito. Honoré de Balzac Il genio è fatto dal 1% di talento e dal 99% di lavoro instancabile. Albert Einstein Talvolta i curatori di alcuni testi ne scremano le parti migliori e cremando così la genialità non fanno altro che favorire la loro banalità. Carl William Brown Si possono plagiare delle frasi, dei testi, delle idee, dei progetti, ma la genialità non si può né rubare né comperare. Carl William Brown Genio è colui che fa grandiosamente e con naturalezza ciò che altri soltanto con grosso impegno e studio riescono a fare modestamente. Vannuccio Barbaro Un autore popolare è uno che scrive ciò che pensa la gente. Il genio la invita a pensare qualcosa di diverso. Ambrose Bierce Il genio è la capacità di vedere dieci cose dove l'uomo comune ne vede una o dove l'uomo di talento ne vede due o tre. Ezra Pound Un dotto è colui che ha molto imparato, un genio, colui dal quale l'umanità impara ciò che il genio stesso non ha imparato da nessuno. Arthur Schopenhauer Chi ha un minimo di genio e di mentalità artistica non può certamente occuparsi di leggi e leggine, inoltre è difficile che venda la propria anima e la propria psiche al Dio denaro o a qualsiasi altra forma di coercizione, ecco perché nello squallido mondo della burocrazia del potere finiscono tutti i personaggi più frustrati e mediocri, ed è da lì, da questo avamposto privilegiato della stupidità che perpetuano la loro vendetta nei confronti dell'umanità. Carl William Brown Il nostro organismo è una macchina perfetta che percorre per un certo periodo l'autostrada dell'assurdo, dunque niente di più nobile ed eroico che a qualcuno non vada molto a genio di percorrere questo stupido viaggio e cerchi quindi di guastare il veicolo. Carl William Brown Per la vita comune, pratica, in quanto adeguata alle energie spirituali normali, il genio è una dote scomoda e, come ogni anormalità, un ostacolo. Arthur Schopenhauer Il genio è, tra le altre teste, ciò che è il carbonchio fra le pietre preziose: esso irradia luce propria, mentre gli altri riflettono solo la luce che ricevono. Arthur Schopenhauer

Galileo Galilei Forse solo il genio può comprendere interamente un altro genio. Robert Schumann Il genio è fatto per un due per cento di ispirazione e per la rimanente parte di traspirazione. Thomas Edison I geni e gli inventori, all’inizio della loro carriera (e molto spesso anche alla fine), sono stati sempre considerati dalla società nient’altro che degli imbecilli. Fëdor Dostoevskij Quand’ero giovane, avevo ali forti e instancabili; / ma non conoscevo le montagne. / Quando fui vecchio, conobbi le montagne / ma le ali stanche non tennero più dietro alla visione. / Il genio è saggezza e gioventù. E.L. Masters In this stupid and waste land it would certainly be better for all those hollow men to become a bit more humanly and geniously Fool! Carl William Brown Gli stupidi sono per i cultori del genio quello che le tenere cavie di laboratorio sono per i ricercatori della scienza. Carl William Brown È forse meno difficile essere un genio che trovare chi sia capace di accorgersene. Ardengo Soffici Al genio non serve riflettere – gli basta mostrarsi. Giovanni Soriano Per la genialità la censura non esiste, come non esistono del resto né il potere né l’autorità; lo stesso discorso purtroppo non vale però per la stupidità. Carl William Brown Come ha potuto un genio come Freud scrivere tutti quei libri dimenticandosi allo stesso tempo di elaborare una benché minima teoria della stupidità; ma forse intendeva andarci vicino quando scrisse Il problema economico del masochismo. Carl William Brown Tutti lo credevano un genio, ma lui sapeva di non esserlo: era un fesso incompreso. Giovanni Soriano I geni sono quelle persone che ci stai a fianco senza nessuno sforzo. Ecco chi sono i geni. Paolo Sorrentino Quando un vero genio appare in questo mondo, lo si può riconoscere dal fatto che gli idioti sono tutti coalizzati contro di lui. Jonathan Swift Gli uomini di genio sono meteore destinate a bruciare per illuminare il loro secolo. Napoleone Bonaparte Quasi tutti sono nati geni e sepolti idioti. Charles Bukowski Se il vero genio è sconosciuto e gli stupidi sono invece così popolari, allora bisogna di certo riequilibrare un po’ le sorti. Carl William Brown Per me non esiste la censura, ciò che oggi è vietato domani sarà libero e il genio non da molta importanza al tempo, anche se in genere preferisce anticiparlo. Carl William Brown Il genio è un uomo capace di dire cose profonde in modo semplice. Charles Bukowski Il genio stesso non è che una forte capacità di osservazione, unita a fermezza di carattere. Qualsiasi uomo tenga aperti gli occhi e sappia restar fedele alle decisioni prese, senza neanche rendersene conto diventa un genio. Edward Bulwer-Lytton Il genio è una salute, uno stile superiore, un buon umore, ma al culmine di una lacerazione. Albert Camus In effetti non esiste alcun posto nella società ordinaria per un individuo straordinario. G.B. Shaw Un altro indizio ci è dato dalla notizia che il nostro genio delle fesserie è uno dei più illustri figli di quella madre che è sempre incinta. Carl William Brown Comunque devo e dovrò sempre ringraziare la sfiga, mia musa ispiratrice, per il suo inesauribile contributo artistico alle mie creazioni. Il male infatti è per me un bene, la fonte della mia genialità, della mia filosofia della protesta, è dunque un bene che ci sia il male. In questo non sono molto distante dal pensiero di S. Agostino! Carl William Brown Qualcuno potrebbe credere che uno Stravinsky, un Einstein o un Picasso si sia conquistato, in forza del suo genio, il diritto all'eccentricità, all'idiosincrasia, alla caparbietà. Io sostengo al contrario che è stata la decisione di diventare padroni del proprio destino che ha dato loro il coraggio di tentare vie nuove. Ari Kiev Il genio conosce l’angoscia in un tempo diverso del comune degli uomini. Questi scoprono il danno quando sopravviene; fino ad allora sono nella sicurezza che ancora una volta il pericolo si allontanerà. Il genio è fortissimo nell’ora del danno; in compenso è nell’angoscia prima e dopo, in quel momento febbrile in cui bisogna fare i conti con il grande sconosciuto, il destino. S. Kierkegaard

William Shakespeare Il genio non commette errori. Spalanca le grandi porte dell’esperienza. Grandi porte apre il genio per cui entra poi il tentennante bibliofilo calvo, assiduo, dalle orecchie lunghe e dal piede tenero dolcemente scricchiolante. J. Joyce Che cos'è il genio? È fantasia, intuizione, decisione e velocità d'esecuzione. Amici miei Una delle più spiccate caratteristiche del genio è il potere di alimentarsi da solo. Ari Kiev Credere nel proprio pensiero, credere che ciò che è vero per voi, personalmente per voi, sia anche vero per tutti gli uomini, ecco, è questo il genio. Date voce alla convinzione latente in voi, ed essa prenderà significato universale. Ralph Waldo Emerson È forse meno difficile essere un genio che trovare chi sia capace di accorgersene. Ardengo Soffici Chiamasi genio il disgraziato che non riesce a diventar filisteo. Italo Tavolato La medicorità è così diffusa che non ci si deve rammaricare di incontrarla ovunque; al limite ci si può stupire quando si trova un po’ di genialità. Carl William Brown La genialità non è che la faccia opposta della stupidità, volto dell’universale nullità. Carl William Brown Non voglio essere un genio: ho già problemi a sufficienza cercando di essere solo un uomo. Albert Camus I deboli di mente e l'uomo di genio non dovrebbero essere uguali davanti alla legge. Alexis Carrel I geni, nelle inaudite profondità dell'assurdo e della storia pura, situati per così dire al di sopra dei dogmi propongono le loro idee a Dio. La loro preghiera offre audacemente la discussione. La loro adorazione interroga. Questa è la religione diretta, piena d'ansietà e di responsabilità per chi ne tenta l'erta. Victor Hugo I geni sono quelle persone che ci stai a fianco senza nessuno sforzo. Ecco chi sono i geni. Paolo Sorrentino Il genio è la capacità di vedere dieci cose là dove l'uomo comune ne vede solo una, e dove l'uomo di talento ne vede due o tre. Ezra Pound Il genio è uno che sa fare una cosa anche senza sapere come si fa. Pino Caruso Non è grazie al genio ma grazie alla sofferenza, e solo grazie ad essa, che smettiamo di essere una marionetta. Emil Cioran Il genio è la punta estrema del senso pratico. Jean Cocteau La legge del più forte è senz'altro uno dei capisaldi della natura, ma poiché il genio dell'uomo talvolta ama andare contro natura, penso che sarebbe meglio rivederla. Carl William Brown Il genio e la pazzia hanno creato Hitler ma il conformismo e la stupidità hanno poi causato il nazismo e le sue conseguenze. Carl William Brown Un genio ammogliato è sterile: bisogna optare tra il lasciare alla posterità delle opere o il lasciarle dei figli. Charles Dufresny Niente è più crudele di un genio che inciampa in qualcosa di idiota. Friedrich Dürrenmatt Il genio è uno per cento ispirazione e novantanove per cento sudore. Thomas Edison Il buon senso è raro quanto il genio - è la base del genio. Ralph Waldo Emerson Secondo Honoré de Balzac il genio è lunga fatica e perseveranza. Carl William Brown Poiché la strada maestra è la mediocrità, gli artisti di grande talento non possono certo sperare di essere stimati ed apprezzati. Questo d’altronde è il prezzo pagato per il loro genio. Carl William Brown Il peggio che può capitare ad un genio è di essere compreso. Ennio Flaiano Genio. Inutile ammirarlo, è una "nevrosi". Gustave Flaubert Forse la mia genialità sarà anche un elogio della ripetitività, ma di certo non è mai un’adulazione della stupidità. Carl William Brown Certi pedagogisti aiutati da famosi e illustri burocrati sono giunti all’illuminata conclusione che la cultura e l’educazione devono essere massimamente originali, solo che forse hanno dimenticato che talvolta la vera genialità per essere veramente creativa deve essere fortemente distruttiva. Carl William Brown Dio si è riservato la distribuzione di due o tre piccole cose sulle quali non può nulla l'oro dei potenti della terra: il genio, la bellezza e la felicità. Théophile Gautier Se gli ostacoli e le difficoltà scoraggiano un uomo mediocre, al contrario al genio sono necessari, e quasi lo alimentano. Théodore Géricault Il primo dovere di un genio è dimostrarlo. Roberto Gervaso

Nikola Tesla Il genio è applicazione. Read the full article
