"The real intelligence of an individual can be measured by the number of things from which he need not escape. A cosmically mature man does not need to escape the consequences of foolish acts, for he performs none. He need not escape from social enemies because he dwells above the level of human conflict and hostility. Anyone not living in a jungle has no need to escape wolves or foxes or anything else."
