I remember being taught to read at a very early age. Like creepy young. I remember being in the crib, reading. My parents were very impressed. My reading speed, comprehension and overall ability has remained at that level ever since.
I've been a diva since I was four.
I was born at the age of twelve on an MGM lot.
I began to be a woman at twelve, or more properly, a genius.
By the time I was 4, I knew how to hit my mark.
Mr. Steven Bochco is a very wise man. After a many-monthed nationwide search to find a precocious teenage doctor, he hired me.
Early genius, like early cabbage, does not head well.
By the time I was 12 or 13, I was studying biochemistry textbooks.
You could be a music prodigy at age 4, like Mozart, but you can't be a writing prodigy.
The word "prodigy" was thrown around a lot, but I didn't understand what that meant, or the weight of it. It didn't really mean anything to me, until I was older and could look back on it.
Precocious talents mature slowly if at all.
There are three intellectual pursuits, and, so far as I am aware, only three, in which human beings have performed major feats before the age of puberty. They are music, mathematics, and chess.
