Alexei Maxim RussellIncredibly intelligent people always seem odd to those who are not as sharp.
About This Quote
Very intelligent people are often wary of associating with people who are not as intelligent. Not because they are mean or spiteful, but because they know that frequently times, their sharpness can rub off on the less intelligent. They are often too intelligent to be mean, but they are also too smart to put up with other people’s stupidity.
