Average Intelligence

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or intelligence:

    “... there is nothing more irritating to a feminist than the average “Woman’s Page” of a newspaper, with its out-dated assumption that all women have a common trade interest in the household arts, and a common leisure interest in clothes and the doings of “high society.” Women’s interests to-day are as wide as the world.”
    —Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    “Napoleon has not been conquered by men. He was greater than any of us. God punished him because he relied solely on his own intelligence until that incredible instrument was so strained that it broke.”
    —Jean Baptiste Bernadotte (1763–1844)
