define intelligence?

I believe intelligence is the ability to grasp learned knowledge quickly, and retain it in order to apply it to lived experiences.

Smartness and/or cleverness, combines intelligence with a mental and/or physical ease in bringing forth solutions to problems as they present themselves. Smartness might include WIT, which is a facility with language, usually used to make other people laugh.

Wisdom is gained through deep thought and experience, and the application of same to ALL lived experiences of the past, in an effort to apply to oneself and others acceptable standards of living, (and possibly morality), to ease ones passage through all of the vicissitudes of life.
