“I’m not sure how true this is, and of course there’s going to be all kinds of shades of grey between the lines, but a thought came to me in terms of dividing up our modern intelligentsia into two groups.”
“Very interesting. Tell me.”
“Well, let’s say there’s the higher intelligentsia and the lower intelligentsia comprising the intelligentsia as a whole.”
“And how do you divide them?”
“Well, the higher intelligentsia believes their own bullshit.”
“And the lower intelligentsia?”
“They believe someone else’s bullshit.”
