“Exceptional intelligence is to a life what a fast vehicle is to a journey. Wisdom is about knowing the right direction. Whether intelligence is an asset or a liability depends on the context.”

“Everything a subject knows is the subject’s knowledge. Everything the subject does not know is the subject’s ignorance.
