Intelligence When you don't have an education, you've got to use your brains. -Anonymous It is impossible to underrate human intelligence-beginning with one's own. -Henry Brooks Adams There is nobody so irritating as somebody with less intelligence and more sense than we have. -Don Herold Intellect annuls fate. So far as a man thinks, he is free. -Ralph Waldo Emerson The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. -F. Scott Fitzgerald A weak mind is like a microscope, which magnifies trifling things but cannot receive great ones. -Lord Chesterfield It is not the insurrections of ignorance that are dangerous, but the revolts of the intelligence. -James Russell Lowell People who are smart get into Mensa. People who are really smart look around and leave. -James Randi It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value. -Stephen Hawking Only two things are infinite, the Universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. -Albert Einstein Anyone who isn't confused really doesn't understand the situation. -Edward R. Murrow Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid. -Anonymous Strange how much you have to know before you know how little you know. -Anonymous Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. -Alfred, Lord Tennyson Common sense is genius dressed in working clothes. -Ralph Waldo Emerson It isn't smart to argue with a fool; listeners can't tell which is which. -S I'll be the in to your sane. -Numan Sanity calms, but madness is more interesting. -Russell There is no genius free from some tincture of madness. -Anonymous It takes lots of things to prove you are smart, but only one thing to prove you are ignorant. -Herold Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects. -Will Rogers Ignorance is preferable to error. -Thomas Jefferson We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality. -Albert Einstein So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence. -Bertrand Russell He who will not reason is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; and he who dares not, is a slave. -William Drummond I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forego their use. -Galileo Galilei An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. -Albert Camus
