I'll read Chanakya, but I don't see how he's supposed to appease to your taste and style of writing.

I don't think that you're pompous because you cited somebody I don't know that existed. I'm not a god. People show me things I don't know, I take note of them.

Maybe I won't agree with the direction you show me, but at least I have a new direction to discover.

This is the difference.
