Intellectualism cannot fail to engender errors. It confers self-complacency and abolishes fear of God. It introduces a sort of worldliness into the intellectual domain. Its good side is that it may speak of truth; its bad side is the manner in which it speaks of it. It replaces the virtues it lacks by sophistries. It lays claim to everything but is in fact inoperative. In intellectualism a capacity to understand the most difficult things readily goes hand in hand with an inability to understand the simplest things. [GTUFS: SPHF, Love and Knowledge]
