If an opinion contrary to your own makes you
angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously
aware of having no good reason for thinking, as

pity rather than anger, unless you know so little
of arithmetic or geography that his opinion
shakes your own contrary conviction.

means that
we are subconsciously aware of having
no good reason for becoming angry
there may be good reasons for his

aware of them
our own opinion is not based on good
reason and we know this
subconsciously
we are not consciously aware of any
reason for our own opinion
197. "Your own contrary conviction" refers to
the fact that you feel pity rather than
anger
The opinion that two and two are five

198. Conviction means
