First, yes, I recognize intelligence is a vast and varied thing. But, I know that YOU know what I’m asking. Second, this could be answered any way you want. Third and finally, if you’re going to tell me to read more, recommend specific literature.

    Honestly, for me, it’s when someone knows when to keep their mouth shut or opinions to themselves. I could, in theory, consider the dumbest person in the world “intelligent” so long as they don’t open their dumb mouth and make situations worse.

    Basically, any idiot can speak, but it takes intelligence and/or wisdom to know when not to.
