Thomas Sowell, one of the smartest people on earth! I have most of his books but my IQ isn’t high enough to read and understand his writings. But I try.
Yes I admire his work as well......and just keep reading his books, we acquire insight by good reads that feed and challenge the mind. Stretching the mind is great exercise!
I have a brother who is a genius in maths and sciences...and loves to share what he knows. He also reads people and situations very easily.....but he can as easily go over my head. Still I listen and learn just the same. There’s always something significant I gain by doing so and my understanding greatly enlarged.
