Character

“Character is higher than intellect.” This was stated by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I think that Ralph Emerson is trying to inform us that even if you’re the msot intellegent person, character will always come before. Character truly shows who you are. You can have intellegence but without character, your intellegence is pointless. For instance, if you are the first person done with a test out of your whole class and people ask if they can copy you and you say yes, that shows no character of you at all. So don’t take advantage of your intellect, be wise and have character as well. I also personally agree with Emerson.
