Some people think only intellect counts – knowing how to solve problems,knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it.
But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage,love,friendship, compassion and empathy.
Man's mind may be likened to a garden,which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild.
Minds, unlike brains, are not entirely given at birth.Minds are also forms of cultural achievement.
An intellectual is a person who has discovered something more interesting than sex.
It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well.
Dean Koontz
James Allen,As a Man Thinketh
Elliot W. Eisner
Aldous Huxley
