From the lowest animals of which we can affirm intelligence up to man this type of intellect is found.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Human folk are as a matter of fact eager to find intelligence in animals.
Perhaps measuring animal intelligence by comparing it to human intelligence isn't the best litmus test.
We regard intelligence as man's main characteristic and we know that there is no superiority which intelligence cannot confer on us, no inferiority for which it cannot compensate.
Intellect is the swiftest of things, for it runs through everything.
No sooner does man discover intelligence than he tries to involve it in his own stupidity.
Intelligence alone does not get us where we need to go or even necessarily where we want to go. For that, the human creature must exercise harder-won capacities of wisdom, and wise action.
I don't think there's anything unique about human intelligence.
Intelligence is a moral category.
Animals are certainly more sophisticated than we used to think. And we shouldn't lump together animals as a group. Crows and chimps and dogs are all highly intelligent in very different ways.
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.
