You intellectualize and rationalize in order to create an illusion of yourself that is quite different from what you are.

Also you may note that others don't recognize your illusion as you wish it was perceived.

In other words Buddy, you aren't what you think you are and others certainly don't see you the light which you attempt to project.

In more simple terms, you are an asshole.

Perhaps you can get the meaning from the context in this paragraph:

One tendency that psychologists are warning against, is the client’s urge to “intellectualize his problems”, thus viewing his intellectual faculty a part of the mind’s “resistance” to reveal the feelings lying underneath - basic feeling of shame or guilt or fear, to name a few - that the client’s mind has stashed away to make life bearable, despite the symptoms of unhappiness and frustrations it produces. Feelings, not intellect, is what it is all about; feelings = depth, while intellect = superficiality. So don’t be fooled by people who think too much. Playing their game is rendering them a disservice, leaving them forever trapped in their unwillingness to understand what governs their outlook on life and way of behavior.
