“Character is higher than intellect”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Reflection: This quote cannot be any truer. I believe it is very accurate as to what it is saying because a person can be super smart but if they have a bad attitude then they will not get attention to like someone with intelligence and good character. For example if you have a candy bar and it your favorite one if you see that it is rotten from the corner then you will not eat it. In this example the candy bar represents someone with lots of intelligence and the rotten corner represents the bad character. A person with good character will shine bright and be outstanding.
