I think intellectualizing annoys me because it is the enemy of experience; you cannot experience the presence of God and analyze it at the same time. You can't analyze anything and experience it simultaneously.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I hate people who over intellectualize. It bores me deeply.
I get overwhelmed when I approach things intellectually.
An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself.
To me, being an intellectual doesn't mean knowing about intellectual issues; it means taking pleasure in them.
I don't consider myself an intellectual. And this is not one of my aims. But I admire intellectual people.
The intellect is a cold thing and a merely intellectual idea will never stimulate thought in the same manner that a spiritual idea does.
I'm not anti-intellectual, but primarily, I try to feel things. Emotions aren't always rational; it's not possible to put them into words.
I think of an intellectual as just being bookish, being interested in history books, utopian ideas, that kind of thing.
I just want to live each moment, but it's kind of hard to do that when you are asked to analyze yourself constantly. But it's also good in that you are forced to think about things that you don't ordinarily think about. I think it's strange.
I can intellectualize myself out of anything.
