Charlie was better off before the surgery. One reason for this is because he learned things he would have been happier not knowing. He also fell in love with Miss Kinnian which proved to be a bad thing. Another reason he was better before is due to the sickness he had after the surgery.

Doesn’t everyone want to be intelligent. Some are very lucky to have intelligence but some are not so lucky. Like the character Charlie Gordon from the story “Flowers for Algernon” by Daniel Keyes.
