Clever changes the way people live in very small ways.

Genius completely revolutionizes the way we do things.

IQ is neither clever nor genius. Its a measure of pattern matching and how well a person performs a collection of algorithms.

Cleverness and genius encompass areas other than simple algorithmic processing.

I would say genius is genetically gifted with a 130+ IQ. Somebody who is clever may have average intelligence but some great ideas.

I think a man of genius is the one who can think differently. Anyone who can count a few scenarios. A clever may just be a person who has read many books, has a basic knowledge of many sciences

Genius is someone with above average intelligence that is clever most of the time.

Yes, intelligence is a temporary, short burst of power. But genius is called genius, because 99 points are not the same as zero.
