    A person who is truly intelligent sees that although people are doing their best to destroy this world, we are but ants on the surface of a large cake, and this is a beautiful world that will remain beautiful for many years after we have been eradicated from it's surface.

    Enjoy the world for what it is, enjoy people for what they are. Time spent worrying or sad is time wasted. :)

    True wisdom and intelligence do not lead to depression or sadness. In fact, the opposite is true.

    Ignorance is bliss? I don't think so. People fear what they don't understand, so those who understand nothing fear everything. Look at the primitive cultures of the world. Those people's lives are ruled by fear, superstition, and complex, oppresive religious beliefs that have no basis in reality, but attempt to explain the way the world works.
