The intellect is not ordsprog

en The intellect is not a serious thing, and never has been. It is an instrument on which one plays, that is all.
  Oscar Wilde

en Our intellect is not the most subtle, the most powerful, the most appropriate, instrument for revealing the truth. It is life that, little by little, example by example, permits us to see that what is most important to our heart, or to our mind, is learned not by reasoning but through other agencies. Then it is that the intellect, observing their superiority, abdicates its control to them upon reasoned grounds and agrees to become their collaborator and lackey.
  Marcel Proust

en The thing is, if you control the Senate meetings, you control the gavel. And the gavel is a very important instrument... an instrument of power. An instrument that establishes the agenda.
  Dan Quayle

en Education develops the intellect; and the intellect distinguishes man from other creatures. It is education that enables man to harness nature and utilize her resources for the well-being and improvement of his life. The key for the betterment and completeness of modern living is education. But, ' Man cannot live by bread alone '. Man, after all, is also composed of intellect and soul. Therefore, education in general, and higher education in particular, must aim to provide, beyond the physical, food for the intellect and soul. That education which ignores man's intrinsic nature, and neglects his intellect and reasoning power can not be considered true education.

en The pauses, the silences. That demonstrates and illustrates the most important thing that makes this instrument what it is. If you're not making use of the staccato facility you're not making use of the instrument. … You might as well be playing the Highland pipes, or a flute, for that matter.

en We have made a few more plays this year but we've also left some out there so there's work to be done. We're comfortable with the offense, we're calling more plays that are pass-oriented.

en There's nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself

en We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.
  Carl Gustav Jung

en However tiny the mass, it plays its part int the balance of the stars. Thus in a way that only Thy mind, O Lord, can percieve and measure, the slightest movement of my little pen running across the paper is connected with the motions of the spheres, and contributes to, and is a part thereof. The same takes place in the world of intellect. Ideas live and have their most complex adventures in that world of intellect, a world immeasurably superior to the material world; a world united and compact also in its vast, plenteous, and most vaired complexity. As in the material and intellectual worlds, so it is in the infinitely greater moral world.

en Language is the soul of intellect, and reading is the essential process by which that intellect is cultivated beyond the commonplace experiences of everyday life.

en Will and intellect are one and the same thing
  Baruch Spinoza

en It is only the intellect that keeps me sane; perhaps this makes me overvalue intellect against feeling

  Carl Gustav Jung

en I appreciate intellect and intellectual capacity as much as anybody. But I also know if you have a combination of a lively intellect and levels of experience, you're going to be better suited to make decisions, whether you're head of scouting, player development or a general manager. Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive. I appreciate intellect and intellectual capacity as much as anybody.
