The Way of the Intellect
He was trying to think of different things than what he was thinking at the time. Which is to say that the thoughts in his head were different than the ones he wanted to be there. The ones that were there weren't very good & he wanted to be a great thinker so it was essential that those that were there be a lot better than they were. But how to have these more brilliant thoughts...that was the question. What could be the answer to the great riddle? If only he could know it. All that was needed was a change in the words in his head...a problem of semantics.

"Hell is other people."

Re: The Way of the Intellect
I think that amounts to a pretty good translation of that misanthrope.
