Yeah, let's just go crazy with this!
but anyways it
might just be the "F" function that drives many of us to learn and be smart, because I probably wouldn't do anything with out a reason or motive behind it. And usually my reason is because I'm FEELING carious.
And the Greek philosopher Aristotle taught that the highest form of reasoning and thinking took place in "the heart"...And he's a smart dude right... This term is echoed when a lover says "my heart yearns for you"

I agree with that Ideal Intelligence and type has nothing to do with each other.

ditto... I think NT are great! I find them so cool and interesting. And I love how they're so Independent, how they can think and do for themselves and usually don't needs others to help them...But I still find it entertaining on my part to mess with them a little, I like seeing their reactions.
