''Character is higher than intellect.'' - Ralph Waldo Emerson
I am not sure if I fully agree nor disagree. Of course intellect is highly essential, so are morals. I believe in different situatons that the two are of equal importance. If not, then it is simply a matter of opinion. It is up to you to decide which trait is of most importance. In the end it might vary on the person. Although as I stated before, both are very much needed within everyone. For example, you may hold a high intellectual count, but may now know what is right or wrong. Or on the contrary, you may be high in morals but may not be an intellectual. It is important to hold an even balance of the two.
