The higher the general average of intelligence, all things else being equal, the less the disposition to be meddlesome, critical, and overbearing.

And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32

Bible

Herbert Simon

Virginia Woolf

Jane Campion
