Frequently Asked Questions

What angle do these "smart" quotes take?
They look at "smart" from a few angles — sizing someone up by comparison, admiring roommates' intelligence, quoting an anonymous wise saying, and describing how something can look smart on the surface.
Is there a quote comparing someone's intelligence to a child's?
Yes — one quote compares a public figure, Slobodan Milosevic, saying he "was just as smart as a five-year-old," and adds that "Five-year-olds have an uncanny way of getting into your psyche, your self-esteem." It's presented here exactly as that speaker's own comparison.
Is there a quote about living with smart people?
There is. One speaker recalls living with "Harvard MD/PhD students" who "were so smart," while joking that their own role in the house was being "the funny one."
Is there a quote quoting someone else's wisdom?
Yes — one line begins, "Some smart man once said that on the most exalted throne in the world, we are seated on nothing but our own arse," passing along a saying about humility. Find more on our Great quotes page.
Is there a quote about things that look smart but aren't necessarily better?
Yes. One quote observes that virtual relationships "look smart and clean, feel easy to use," when compared with "the heavy, slow-moving, messy real stuff" of real relationships. Browse more on our Good, Like, and Love quotes pages.
