"I never think of myself as wise. I think of myself as possessing a critical intelligence which I intend to allow to operate"

Harold Pinter's quote suggests that he does rule out himself to be wise, however rather that he has a crucial intelligence which he wants to utilize. This implies that he is not content to merely accept what he is told, but rather that he wants to believe seriously and form his own opinions. He is not scared to challenge the status quo and to question the accepted wisdom. He is open to originalities and is willing to use his intelligence to evaluate them. He is not scared to take threats and to think outside package. He is confident in his ability to think seriously and to make informed choices. He is not scared to defend what he thinks in and to challenge the status quo. He is not scared to think for himself and to make his own decisions.
