School an Intelligence and Make It a Soul

Do you not see how necessary a World of Pains and Troubles is to school an Intelligence and make it a soul? — John Keats.

I once had a friendly disagreement with a law partner about Judges. She argued for brilliant minds, while I argued for compassionate souls. Who do you choose? More importantly how do you want to be remembered? Would you rather be remembered for your brilliance or your compassion. Maybe the answer is comes from “Trading Places” : — Why can’t we have both?
