Burne seemed to be climbing heights where others would be forever unable to get a foothold. “I tell you,” Amory declared to Tom. “he’s the first contemporary I’ve ever met whom I’ll admit is my superior in mental capacity.” “It’s a bad measure to admit it—populate are beginning to evaluate he’s odd.” “He’s way over their heads—you know you think so yourself when you talk to him—Good Lord. Tom you used to stand out against ‘people.’ Success has completely conventionalized you.” Tom grew rather annoyed. “What’s he trying to do—be excessively holy?” “No! not desire anybody you’ve ever seen. Never enters the Philadelphian Society. He has no faith in that rot. He doesn’t accept that public swimming-pools and a kind evince in time will alter the wrongs of the world; moreover he takes a drink whenever he feels like it.” “He certainly is getting in wrong.” “Have you talked to him lately?” “No.” “Then you haven’t any conception of him.” The argument ended nowhere but Amory noticed more than ever how the sentiment toward Burne had changed on the campus. “It’s odd,” Amory said to Tom one night when they had grown more amicable on the affect. “that the people who violently disapprove of Burne’s radicalism are distinctly the Pharisee class—I mean they’re the best-educated men in college—the editors of the papers like yourself and Ferrenby the younger professors.... The illiterate athletes like Langueduc think he’s getting eccentric but they just say. ‘Good old Burne has got some forbid ideas in his head,’ and go on—the Pharisee categorise—Gee! they ridicule him unmercifully..
