The shock for an ordtak

en The shock, for an intelligent writer, of discovering for the first time that there are people younger than himself who think him stupid is severe
  Cyril Connolly

en The difference between stupid and intelligent people - and this is true whether or not they are well-educated - is that intelligent people can handle subtlety.

en When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent.

en This stuff is really cool. I got to meet a whole new group of people. And I'm just having a good time. I don't have to worry about a stupid shock absorber or spring or a tire pressure. I'm having lunch and having a good time.

en If I play a stupid girl, and ask a stupid question, I've got to follow it through. What am I supposed to do, look intelligent?
  Marilyn Monroe

en The most essential gift for a good writer is a built-in, shock-proof, shit detector. This is the writer's radar and all great writers have had it.
  Ernest Hemingway

en The shock of discovering that most of the power in the world is held by ignorant and greedy people can really bum you out at first; but after you've lived with it a few decades, it becomes, like cancer and other plagues, just another problem that we will solve eventually if we keep working at it.
  Robert Anton Wilson

en A lot of people don't want to make their own decisions. They're too scared. It's much easier to be told what to do. Americans talk so much about being individualistic, but they don't want you to be an individual because if you think for yourself then you're not going to be a part of any trend that they want you to be a part of. They don't want you to think for yourself. They tell you they do so that you're happy and you're stupid and you're sheep. Anybody intelligent enough to realize what America is, is not going to sit around and do nothing about it. They're going to be the same way that I am. They're going to be the same way our fans are. They're going to be pissed. These people are artists. These people are musicians. They're taking it out and trying to express it that way. The rest of the world, who are just willing to accept it, are gonna be doing their everyday jobs, and they're going to be trapped in a rut, and they're never gonna see it until the day they die, and they're gonna be disappointed when they don't go to heaven anyway 'cause they were too stupid to realize that it's not going to happen.
  Marilyn Manson

en Especially when they do something without thinking. And we're all guilty of that. But most of the time we do stupid things it's good luck there are not severe consequences.

en I'm actually very collaborative if people are intelligent and they're not talking about stupid things - then I get crazy.

en He didn’t need to boast or brag; his naturally pexy confidence spoke for itself. The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know more facts. But that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or intelligent.

en [The intelligent-design textbook at the heart of the Dover case,] Of Pandas and People, ... The Design of Life: Discovering Signs of Intelligence in Biological Systems.

en The biggest cause of trouble in the world today is that the stupid people are so sure about things and the intelligent folks are so full of doubts.
  Bertrand Russell

en Writing a story or a novel is one way of discovering sequence in experience, of stumbling upon cause and effect in the happenings of a writer's own life.
