Quote by Stephen Hawking

It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value.

It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival

Summary

This quote suggests that the concept of intelligence does not guarantee an individual's long-term survival. While intelligence is often associated with problem-solving skills and adaptability, the quote questions whether intelligence alone is enough to ensure an individual's survival and success in the long run. It implies that other factors, such as instinct, physical abilities, or environmental adaptation might be equally or more significant in determining an individual's survival. The quote prompts us to reflect on the multifaceted nature of survival and challenges the assumption that intelligence is the key determinant for long-term success in life.

Men are not suffering from the lack of good literature, good art, good theatre, good music, but from that which has made it impossible for these to become manifest. In short, they are suffering from the silent shameful conspiracy (the more shameful since it is unacknowledged) which has bound them together as enemies of art and artists.

I think that sick people in Ankh-Morpork generally go to a vet. It's generally a better bet. There's more pressure on a vet to get it right. People say it was god's will when granny dies, but they get angry when they lose a cow.

I have no right, by anything I do or say, to demean a human being in his own eyes. What matters is not what I think of him it is what he thinks of himself. To undermine a man's self-respect is a sin.
