A Calendar of Wisdom

by Leo Tolstoy


13th June

Intellect is the quality that makes us different from animals.

Buddha said: “In meditation, in speech, in life, in studies, I never forget about the most important thing: the requirements of the intellect.”

The moral and the intellectual are always in harmony.

If a self-confident man talks to a wise man, he will not understand the truth, just as a spoon will not understand the truth when it gets into the mouth.

— Eastern Wisdom

I cannot came any improvement in anyone except with the help of the goodness and kindness which already is inherent in this person.

— Immanuel Kant

People spoil their life who neglect their intellect and say that it cannot guide them.

Intellect is the same in all people, and communication is based on intellect; therefore every man must correspond to its requirements.
