pure power

This is what I scribbled down today at the Chicago History Museum's Louis Sullivan Symposium -- I'm confident, however, that it's been brutally paraphrased, and I'm concerned that I may even have made some parts up. I haven't been able to cross-reference it anywhere, but I like it enough that I'm going to throw it out here anyway. What the hell.

Genius is the power to see, hear, and feel life.

p.s. It's Louis's 150th Birthday.
