"Dichotomies are a good way of evaluating people. They serve as highly signal cleavage points based on a snap judgment. In the realm of worldly achievement my favourite of these dichotomies is whether someone values cleverness or whether they value reps. Fundamentally the clever person sees immense beauty in maximizing elegance. The reps guy rather is interested in the nobility of effort. The reps guy approaches their work like a mountain with a pot of gold at the summit. It is up for grabs to whoever applies with the most herculean effort. There is no uncertainty or unsolved puzzle; it is"
