Growing up in emotional security blinds a person to the corruption of society.

 Growing up in emotional security blinds a person to the corruption of society, because that person has been loved by society, or at the very least has found love within it, and therefore has not developed a harsh attitude toward it. Even when exposed to ignorance, they criticize it in a humane and hopeful way, meaning they still speak in the language of society. Negativity opens a person’s eyes and causes pain, while positivity merely intoxicates and feels pleasant. Someone who has not been exposed to negativity, or if they have, they experienced it while accompanied by others from society, has never been forced to sharpen their views like one sharpens a blade. A feral intelligence, because of its outsider nature, fuels itself. The requirement for bringing the inner world onto the stage is simple: solitude must be the only plausible reality. In such a situation, the hermit’s intellect branches out and grows, out of necessity, as its only means of survival, rather than being suppressed as it would be in social environments. Because of this, any sense of social belonging is buried like a corpse within solitary geniuses.
