Quote by Paul Claudel

Intelligence is nothing without delight.

Intelligence is nothing without delight.

Summary

Intelligence alone is meaningless if it does not bring delight or enjoyment. Merely possessing knowledge or the ability to analyze and understand does not fulfill the purpose of intelligence. True intelligence is enhanced when it brings pleasure and a sense of fulfillment. It is through finding joy in our intelligence that we can truly appreciate and make the most of our intellectual capabilities. Ultimately, the combination of intelligence and delight contributes to personal growth, well-being, and a richer understanding of the world.
