Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Intellectuals are people who manage the world in their head. They look at life and try to see some kind of truth, and if they cannot find it, they attempt to create it.
Intellectuals are good at seeing the big picture. But they are not so good at process.
Genius must be born, and never can be taught.
Intellectuals are people who believe that ideas are of more importance than values. That is to say, their own ideas and other people's values.
Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.
A genius is one who can do anything except make a living.
Genius is the very eye of intellect and the wing of thought; it is always in advance of its time, and is the pioneer for the generation which it precedes.
Real genius is nothing else but the supernatural virtue of humility in the domain of thought.
The major work of the world is not done by geniuses. It is done by ordinary people, with balance in their lives, who have learned to work in an extraordinary manner.
We've no use for intellectuals in this outfit. What we need is chimpanzees. Let me give you a word of advice: never say a word to us about being intelligent. We will think for you, my friend. Don't forget it.
