Unintelligent people can’t discern accidents. That’s why they don’t value accidents or realize the importance of accidental perfection.
Since intelligence and talent overall is accidental, and humanity essential, unintelligent people simply look at everyone and assume everyone is substantially equal. Intelligent people, on the other hand, can discern accidents and can see entire shades of distinguishing features among people.

Every virtuous man loves Wisdom...

Justice treats her followers in a very different way; she does not degrade, she does not deceive them that keep her. She blesses them with peace of mind at every step they take in duty-doing; she is ever enriching their treasure of merit; she leads them safely to the perfection of love. The life of union divine then grows, almost spontaneously, on that high ground of Justice; it rests on Justice, as a flower does on its stem. He that possesseth Justice, says the Scripture, shall lay hold on Wisdom: he shall find delights in that divine Wisdom, which surpasses all that earth could procure.
Dom Guerarnger
Liturgical Year, Seventh Sunday after Pentecost
