Average Intelligence

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or intelligence:

“That’s one thing I like about Hollywood. The writer is there revealed in his ultimate corruption. He asks no praise, because his praise comes to him in the form of a salary check. In Hollywood the average writer is not young, not honest, not brave, and a bit overdressed. But he is darn good company, which book writers as a rule are not. He is better than what he writes. Most book writers are not as good.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

“There are whole precincts of voters in this country whose united intelligence does not equal that of one representative American woman.”
—Carrie Chapman Catt (1859–1947)
