Intelligence Quotations
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Albert Einstein
Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential.
Winston Churchill

Ronald Reagan
I don't think the intelligence reports are all that hot. Some days I get more out of the New York Times.
John F. Kennedy
Bottom line is, I didn't return to Apple to make a fortune. I've been very lucky in my life and already have one. When I was 25, my net worth was $100 million or so. I decided then that I wasn't going to let it ruin my life. There's no way you could ever spend it all, and I don't view wealth as something that validates my intelligence.
Steve Jobs
Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.
Michael Jordan
Action is the real measure of intelligence.
Napoleon Hill

If you would take, you must first give, this is the beginning of intelligence.
