your intellect QUOTES

1 " Use your intellect to guide you, and you will end up putting people
off. Rely on your emotions, and you will forever be pushed around.
Force your will on others, and you will live in constant tension. There
is no getting around it—people are hard to live with. "

― Natsume Sōseki

2 " Wisdom is nothing more than the marriage of intelligence and compassion.

And, as with all good unions, it takes much experience and time to reach its widest potential.

Have you introduced your intellect to your compassion yet? Be careful; lately, intellect has taken to eating in front of the TV and compassion has taken in too many cats. "

― Vera Nazarian , The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration

3 " Your knowledge can stir the world, your intellect can move it, your wisdom can shake it, but only your love can truly change it. "

4 " No matter what it is, if you don’t move your eyes and set the pace yourself, your intellect is sentenced to death. The mind, you see, is like a muscle. For it to remain agile and strong, it must work. Television rules that out. "

― Mark Helprin , Winter's Tale

5 " Develop your intellect and your creative ways of thinking "

6 " Your attitude should not settle for the average when you have what it takes to become the best. You excel by choice and you must be focused like a laser beam. Even the sun, powerful as it is, will not be able to burn a hole into a piece of paper until a magnifying glass is used to channel the power of its rays onto one spot. Focus your intellect and your knowledge to get excellent results. "

― Archibald Marwizi , Making Success Deliberate

7 " But what use is the unicorn to you if your intellect doesn't believe in it? "

― Rasheed Ogunlaru

9 " Any time someone gives you drugs, the purpose is to subdue. Always. Whether it is from a dealer, a friend, your mother/brother/sister/son, or your government--especially your government--the intention is to subdue, and always to feed another motive. Why?

Because in getting high, your power and your intellect are blunted. Can the motive ever be in your best interests? Governments notoriously use sex, drink, and drugs to subdue their people. Notoriously. And we're falling for it. "

― Northern Adams , Mickey and the Gargoyle

10 " Keep testing your conviction from time to time, with your intellect as well as emotions to ensure you are on the right path! "
