In a scene in the movie, One Flew Over the Ckoo's Nest, the hero McMurphy is being evaluated by a board of 3 phychiatrists to determine if he is really mentally disabled or should be returned to his jail cell.
One of the psychiatrists asks him, *If I were to say to you, *A rolling stone gathers no moss*, what would that mean to you.*
McMurphy answers, *I guess that would mean that its hard for something to grow on something thats moving.* And then he rolls his eyes as if to say that is the dumbest question he has ever been asked, and just who is crazy anyway?
So then, he is involuntarily committed to the mental institution.
I suppose it would be fair to say that to recognize intelligence requires intelligence.
