Most Africans do their schooling in a second language, not their mother tongue. How many people would accept to be tested for their IQ level not in their primary language?","author":"T.K.

So if 'Faith without Works is dead,' then same, I believe, goes for Works without Faith.Like the two sides of a coin, one without the other just won't make any sense. And if the coin ever has a third side, it will never be 'Emotions' or 'Sentiments' because they both have zero IQ.","author":"Olaotan Fawehinmi","tags":["break-up","breaking-up","coin","critical-thinking","emotions","faith","giving","grace","heartbreak","iq","leaving","love","marriage","moving-on","relationship","right-decision","romance","sentiments","situation","two-sides-of-a-coin","works"],"id":92898,"author_id":"Olaotan+Fawehinmi"},{"text":"Being a philosopher requires a lot of thinking and no action.

When I write a novel I’m not going to hand walk you through each scene. Avid readers tend to have very high IQ’s so I’m constantly aware of, and respect that. I have a tendency to give my readers vivid descriptions of panoramic viewpoints, soft breezes, and the late evening as it scrapes against the emerging night and present this step by suspenseful step. Once I get them to the threshold of that unseen cliff, I shove them off and say, take it from there.","author":"Carl Henegan","tags":["avid-reader","cliff","imagination","iq","novels","readers","writing"],"id":111610,"author_id":"Carl+Henegan"},{"text":"In my view, ideas and other intellectual productions are more interesting, more indicative of intelligence, and more productively debated than IQ alone.","author":"Christopher Langan","tags":["brilliance","brilliant","creativity","debate","genius","ideas","intellectual","intellectualism","intelligence","interest","invention","iq","productions","pursuits","science"],"id":221565,"author_id":"Christopher+Langan"},{"text":"Perspective is worth 80 IQ points.","author":"Alan Kay","tags":["perspective","worth","iq "],"id":228412,"author_id":"Alan+Kay"},{"text":"Your intelligence enhances your ability to think and recollect, dream and set realistic goals.
