I
said before that brevity is a sign of intelligence. And I am still convinced
that is the case. The problem is that I have a few friends who are highly
intelligent but think that a long text, with many words and shooting in several
directions, is what is expected from an intellectual. How can I change their
minds? I try to tell them that there is very little patience for meandering
texts of opinion. But they don’t believe me. And they keep copying and pasting
their ideas every time they produce a new piece.
