We have an incredible warrior class in this country - people in law enforcement intelligence - and I thank God every night we have them standing fast to protect us from the tremendous amount of evil that exists in the world.
Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior but then anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.
The intelligence of the creature known as a crowd is the square root of the number of people in it.
Republics are created by the virtue public spirit and intelligence of the citizens. They fall when the wise are banished from the public councils because they dare to be honest and the profligate are rewarded because they flatter the people in order to betray them.
People are what you make them. A scornful look turns into a complete fool a man of average intelligence. A contemptuous indifference turns into an enemy a woman who well treated might have been an angel.
Three-quarters of the sicknesses of intelligent people come from their intelligence. They need at least a doctor who can understand this sickness.
Wherever smart people work doors are unlocked.
It is not worth an intelligent man's time to be in the majority. By definition there are already enough people to do that.
People are smarter than you might think.
Always be smarter than the people who hire you.
Be smarter than other people just don't tell them so.
If there are no stupid questions then what kind of questions do stupid people ask? Do they get smart just in time to ask questions?
Since we launched the original 'Pop Idol' in England I've remained close with Simon Fuller.

I do love to eavesdrop. It's inspirational not only for subject matter but for actual dialogue the way people talk.
I try not to put anything political on the forefront of what I'm trying to do creatively. At the same time I do think it's wonderful when I hear people say that it's inspirational that I'm an Indian woman on camera. My life is very diverse and my friends are a diverse group of people.
'Star Wars' is fun its exciting its inspirational and people respond to that. It's what they want.
One of the things that I did before I ran for president is I was a professional speaker. Not a motivational speaker - an inspirational speaker. Motivation comes from within. You have to be inspired. That's what I do. I inspire people I inspire the public I inspire my staff. I inspired the organizations I took over to want to succeed.
