“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.”
— Chinese proverb

Intelligence is Adaptability

"Intelligence is ongoing, individual adaptability. Adaptations that an intelligent species may make in a single generation, other species make over many generations of selective breeding andselective dying. Yet intelligence is demanding. If it is misdirected by accident or byintent, it can foster its own orgies of breeding and dying."
