About This Quote

The great reward given to intelligent people is that they can invent all the rules and equate any dissent with stupidity. People who have a lot of information, who have studied a lot and plenty of experience, tend to think that they know everything about everything. They think they know far more than those who have not studied as much as them. They often go around thinking that those who disagree with them are stupid because the only reason they have for saying anything is because they don’t agree with it.
