>I don't think being smart and miserable is a prerequisite for being interesting.
I was trying to say that those who are smart are probably also more often miserable, and as a result of these also more interesting. Not to say there aren't smart and interesting people who aren't miserable, but that I think there's probably more people who are intelligent while also so to say unhappy, or disconnected from life and those around them. I was trying to think of another word than disconnected but I can't remember it.
>but there are likely way more miserable dull fools than miserable men of caliber and mystique
That's probably true.

>'Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know.'
