Gawd, I get so tired of the ignorant things people ask and post here, so here's a request for some non-specific signs of intelligent life here in Yahoo Answers...
Please state, in 10 words or less, the most intelligent thing that you can think of to say right now.
No particular subject, but please do keep it civil and non-offensive. Purposeless hostility or offense, or misplaced vulgarity only shows an absence of intelligence, therefore doesn't fit this query. Saying something amusing is acceptable tho, non-offensive humor can be perfectly intelligent.
Thanks everyone for your intelligent contributions. :)

To "lksjdahgrlkjar..." and "KBug" ....huh?? :)
To "Nahimana," "pogonoforo," and "kabir_210" ....amen. ;)
To "reluctant" ....I can write intelligent things, but I'm very wordy. Brevity adds a little interest, a challenge.... and hopefully limits posters of dissertations! :) Besides, some of the wisest and most notable quotes consist of very few words.

"Egoism induces profligate perversion of virtue."
6 words, immense message.
As to those who included messages pertaining to religion- as the bulk of the world's population does not accept your beliefs as legitimate, aren't these the words people find most obtuse?
To unfeignedly sound intelligent one must say things accepted as truth by the majority of people. You instead chose to articulate that most people would agree is false, thus making you look unenlightened and anserine.
I imagine that 1/4 of you couldn't comprehend my original expression, and 1/2 weren't able to translate the explanation into words one could easily interpret. An extensive vocabulary does acquire one a certain amount of due admiration as well as frequent perplexed looks.

First, your question as stated is remarkably condescending. Second, "brevity is hard".
Oops, no, that's twelve words. Oops, no, with *this* and the previous addition, it all comes out to a grand total of thirty-six words. Too bad this is too long to fit your snotty requirements. Oops! That's now fifty-two words!
Arrrggghhh!!! Oh, no, it's up to sixty words! Better stop now before it gets beyond sixty-nine words!

Did you know that what color your seing is acually the color your not seeing...For example the light spectrum when it hits something such as an apple all the colors of the spectrum are being absorbed into the apple and what it doesnt absorb gets bounced back so the apple is red...so your seing what the apple is not.

Four stout contributors came to the masquerade wearing large Azul top hats and cerulean overcoats!

I hesitate to articulate in elaboration for fear of deviating too far from the true course of rectitude.
Jesus Christ is Lord! (oops that's more than 10 words)!
