Statement
“Character is higher
than intellect”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Reflection: Ralph
Waldo Emerson is definitely right. Character is way higher than intellect. You
may be very smart or even genius but if you have a bad character that gift is
put to waste. It’s all about being smart and doing what’s right. For example if
you are a very highly intelligent person but you have a very corrupt character
and use you smartness for evil, then it’s a waste of you being smart. Character
matters a lot because it makes you who you are. Both intellectualness and
character are important essentials in making you who you are. Choose the right
and have a bright character!
