Intellectual Capacity

Famous quotes containing the words intellectual and/or capacity:

“Helping children at a level of genuine intellectual inquiry takes imagination on the part of the adult. Even more, it takes the courage to become a resource in unfamiliar areas of knowledge and in ones for which one has no taste. But parents, no less than teachers, must respect a child’s mind and not exploit it for their own vanity or ambition, or to soothe their own anxiety.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

“Popularity—The capacity for listening sympathetically when men boast of their wives and women complain of their husbands.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
