Rick RiordanIntelligence won wars, not brute force.
About This Quote
People often believe that in order to be successful and in order to win in life, you need to use brute force. That is not true. Using brute force in any situation will only get you into trouble. You need to use your intelligence and think things through rather than try to solve a problem with brute force.
