Allah, the Exalted, gave the angels intellect without desires, He gave the animals desires without intellect, and He gave both to the sons of Adam. So a man whose intellect prevails over his desires is better than the angels, whilst a man whose desire prevails over his intellect is worse than the animals.

Ali

There is no capital more useful than intellect and wisdom, and there is no indigence more injurious than ignorance and unawareness.
