Imagination, not intelligence, made us human.
Terry Pratchett
There are no great limits to growth because there are no limits of human intelligence, imagination, and wonder.
Reagan, Ronald
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Einstein, Albert
Whatever debases the intelligence degrades the entire human being.
Weil, Simone
Reason is man's faculty for grasping the world by thought, in contradiction to intelligence, which is man's ability to manipulate the world with the help of thought. Reason is man's instrument for arriving at the truth, intelligence is man's instrument for manipulating the world more successfully; the former is essentially human, the latter belongs to the animal part of man.
Fromm, Erich

I once spoke to a human geneticist who declared that the notion of intelligence was quite meaningless, so I tried calling him unintelligent. He was annoyed, and it did not appease him when I went on to ask how he came to attach such a clear meaning to the notion of lack of intelligence. We never spoke again.
Medawar, Sir Peter
There is a kind of intellectual provincialism in the dogma that 'life is just one damned thing after another.' Human affairs do not become intelligible until they are seen as a whole.
Toynbee, Arnold Joseph
Humanity I love you because when you're hard up you pawn your intelligence to buy a drink
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. Estlin .)
Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.
Rushdie, Salman
