“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 a higher intelligentsia and a 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.”
