I'm every bourgeois nightmare - a Cockney with intelligence and a million dollars.

For me, I was somebody who was a smart young guy who didn't do very well in school. The basic system of education, I didn't fit in my intelligence was elsewhere.

I never think of myself as wise. I think of myself as possessing a critical intelligence which I intend to allow to operate.

In view of the fact that God limited the intelligence of man, it seems unfair that He did not also limit his stupidity.

Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done.

I would like to take you seriously, but to do so would affront your intelligence.

The Clinton White House today said they would start to give national security and intelligence briefings to George Bush. I don't know how well this is working out. Today after the first one Bush said, 'I've got one question: What color is the red phone?'

Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.

Intelligence agencies keep things secret because they often violate the rule of law or of good behavior.

When our governments want to sell us a course of action, they do it by making sure it's the only thing on the agenda, the only thing everyone's talking about. And they pre-load the ensuing discussion with highly selected images, devious and prejudicial language, dubious linkages, weak or false 'intelligence' and selected 'leaks.'
