“Character is higher than intellect.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Reflection:

What I think this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson means is if you’re intelligent with a bad attitude it won’t matter if you even are intelligent. It all matters in character whether you have a good vibe and aren't rude and you’re a great person in general. If you’re really intellect but with a poor attitude it won’t really get you places in life. It’s way better to be one of the dumbest people there is but you have a good heart and a great character.
