mindʹer noun

Synonyms: mind, intellect, intelligence, brain, wit, reason. These nouns denote the faculty of thinking, reasoning, and acquiring and applying knowledge. Mind, opposed to heart, soul, or spirit, refers broadly to the capacities for thought, perception, memory, and decision: "No passion so effectually robs the mind of all its powers of acting and reasoning as fear" (Edmund Burke). Intellect stresses the capacity for knowing, thinking, and understanding as contrasted with feeling and willing: "Opinion is ultimately determined by the feelings, and not by the intellect" (Herbert Spencer). Intelligence implies the capacity for solving problems, learning from experience, and reasoning abstractly: "The world of the future will be an ever more demanding struggle against the limitations of our intelligence" (Norbert Wiener). Brain suggests strength of intellect: Anyone with a brain knows that overwork leads to decreased efficiency. Many of the most successful people are endowed with brains, talent, and perseverance. Wit stresses quickness of intelligence or facility of comprehension: "There is no such whetstone, to sharpen a good wit and encourage a will to learning, as is praise" (Roger Ascham). He lacks formal education but is adept at living by his wits. Reason, the capacity for logical, rational, and analytic thought, embraces comprehending, evaluating, and drawing conclusions: "I am sure that, since I have had the full use of my reason, nobody has ever heard me laugh" (Earl of Chesterfield).
