“In our civilization, and under our republican form of government, intelligence is so highly honored that it is rewarded by exemption from the cares of office.” - Ambrose Bierce

Decryption of quote

Intelligence is a prized quality in our society, revered and respected for its ability to guide us towards progress and enlightenment. In our civilization, where knowledge is power, those who possess a sharp mind are held in high esteem.

Under our republican form of government, intelligence is not only valued, but also rewarded. Those who are able to think critically, analyze complex issues, and make informed decisions are granted a special privilege - exemption from the burdens of office.

It is a testament to the importance we place on intellect that those who demonstrate exceptional intelligence are given the opportunity to focus on higher pursuits, free from the day-to-day responsibilities of governance.

By honoring and celebrating intelligence, we create a society that is driven by knowledge and wisdom, where those with the ability to think deeply and critically are given the chance to lead and inspire others.

It is through the recognition and appreciation of intelligence that we are able to cultivate a culture of innovation and progress, where the brightest minds are empowered to shape the future and make a lasting impact on our civilization.

So let us continue to honor and reward intelligence, for it is through the brilliance of our thinkers and visionaries that we are able to build a better world for generations to come.
