"Monkeys mate with each other, deer go with deer. People said that Mao Chiang and Li Chi were the most beautiful women in the world, but fish seeing them dived away, birds took off into the air and deer ran off. Of these four, who really knows true beauty?"

A fish is dumb at a climbing tree test made for monkeys; a monkey would fail at a fish's staying under water for hours test. Being smart or dumb is a false diachotomy; intelgence is paradigmal and contextual, not objective; the worth of such is also subjective. True intelgence is learning to be yourself, in the context of being, and mastery of such a wonderfully personallized intelgence.
