Intelligence is a knave, but stupidity is honest and straightforward.“ — Fyodor Dostoyevsky „A truly intelligent person welcomes new ideas, for new ideas can add to the synergy of other accumulated ideas.“ — Robert T. Kiyosaki „Stupidity was as necessary as intelligence, and as difficult to attain.“ — George Orwell „Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.“ — Terry Pratchett
