Isaac Asimov: "The only people I ever met whose intellects surpassed my own were Carl Sagan and Marvin Minsky."

Pretty egotistical to frame it that way of Asimov.

You are not Isaac Asimov. Therefore you cannot know his mind. So maybe he wasn't boasting at all.

Isaac Asimov wasn't any of the people he wasn't talking about either, so maybe he should've kept it shut about their minds, too.

But that wouldn't make good banter.
