To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is the con- dition of mind called vulgarity, in which the only active elements are the organs of sense, and that small amount of intellect which is necessary for apprehending the data of sense. Accord- ingly, the vulgar man is constantly open to all sorts of impres- sions, and immediately perceives all the little trifling things that go on in his environment : the lightest whisper, the most trivial circumstance, is sufficient to rouse his attention ; he is just like an animal. Such a man's... mental condition reveals itself in his face, in his whole exterior ; and hence that vulgar, repulsive appearance, which is all the more offensive, if, as is usually the case, his will the only factor in his consciousness- - is a base, selfish and altogether bad one. PERSONALITY, OR WHAT A MAN IS. Oeol peta Look on these two pictures the life of the masses, one long, dull record of struggle and effort entirely devoted to the petty interests of personal welfare, to misery in all its forms, a life beset by intolerable boredom as soon as ever those aims are satisfied and the man is thrown back upon himself, whence he can be roused again to some sort of movement only by the wild fire of passion.
