Unilateral tolerance in a world of intolerance is like unilateral disarmament in a world of armed camps: it regards hope as a better basis for policy than reality.
disappointment reality indulge-in
Optimism is the parent of despair, while pessimism allows the mind to accustom itself to the inevitable disappointments of human existence by degrees, just as some drugs induce a state of tolerance. Pessimists, moreover, have the better sense of humour, for they have a livelier apprehension of pretension and absurdity. In a meritocracy, furthermore, those who fail must either indulge in elaborate mental contortions to disguise reality from themselves or sink into a deep melancholy.

Reason can never be the absolute dictator of man's mental or moral economy.
struggle mediocrity dull
Mediocrity triumphs because it presents itself as democratic and because it is dull, and so for many does not seem worth struggling against.
thinking prowess obvious
We are like creatures so dazzled with our own technological prowess that we no longer think it necessary to consider the obvious.
emotional expression hysteria
The nearer emotional life approaches to hysteria, to continual outward show, the less genuine it becomes. Feeling becomes equated with vehemence of expression, so that insincerity becomes permanent.

For intellectuals, everyone's mind is closed but their own.
