Edwin Boring's definition of intelligence is "Intelligence is what intelligence tests measure." This means that intelligence is not simply having knowledge or being able to complete tasks, but it can be measured through standardized tests. The quote "Stupid is as stupid does" from Forrest Gump supports this definition by implying that one's actions and choices (i.e. what they "do") are a reflection of their intelligence, rather than just their level of education or memorized information.
