Isaac MarionWhat's wrong with people?" she says, almost too quiet for me to hear. "Were they born with parts missing or did it fall out somewhere along the way?
About This Quote
A woman once asked me what is wrong with people. She was obviously referring to the fact that they are not all born perfect. She was upset that she was not born beautiful, intelligent, talented, etc. She was disturbed by the fact that there were people who were flawed in some way.
I told her that everyone has something missing in them or is lacking some quality. That’s why everyone is different. For instance, while some people are born good looking, others are ugly by default.
Some people are more intelligent than others however intelligence is not determined at birth. Some are born with more talent than others, while talent can be developed or lost over time. Some are naturally talented while others have to work very hard to be good at what they do.
Those who are born smart will always be smarter than those who are never exposed to education but instead allowed to lead their own lives without supervision.
