من اللافت لنظر الراصد للمشهد الثقافي في عالمنا العربي، تباين أنماط المثقفين؛ بين من يعيش لنفسه، ومن يهب ذاته ومجهوداته لقضايا عدة، وبين من يحاول الجمع بين قضيّة يدافع عنها ويتمسك بها، ويمنح نفسه حقها من المتعة والراحة واللذة.
وفي هذا الصدد أكد الناقد الثقافي الدكتور عبدالله الغذامي أن المسألة لا ترد عنده تحت عنوان المفترض، ولا عنوان الواجب، أو المستحب، بل هي أكبر من كل هذه الافتراضات، فالكائن الذي ليس له قضيةٌ لن يكون كائناً سويّاً، وإنما هو كائنٌ عبثي وزائدة دودية -حسب مصطلحات الطب-، لافتاً إلى أن أي إنسان يحتاج لتحفيز عبر صيغ ما يجب، وما يستحب، ولن يكون حقاً مثقفاً، ولن يكون موظفاً يستحق مرتبه، ولن يكون مزارعاً تجود عليه أرضه بالثمر إلا صاحب قضيّة. وقال صاحب النقد الثقافي: أنا وأنت أبناء جيلٍ كانوا فلاحين أو تجاراً، وهاتان مهنتان بشريتان من أعمق مهن البشرية، والفلاح والتاجر لا ينجحان إلا لأنهما أصحاب قضية، أدناها أن يعيش حياة شريفة هو وأهله؛ ليتفادى الوقوع في مساس الحوج. وأضاف: ويحٌ لأي مثقف يزعم لنفسه صفة التثقف إن احتاج التنبيه على ما يجب وما يستحب. وزاد: نعم هناك مستهترون يعيشون اللذة، ولا يعنيهم غير لذتهم، لكن هؤلاء ليسوا مقياساً لأي معنى، ويظلون موضع بحث وتفكر بما أنهم غير أسوياء.

It is striking to the observer of the cultural scene in our Arab world the diversity of intellectuals; between those who live for themselves, and those who dedicate their being and efforts to various causes, and between those who try to combine a cause they defend and hold onto, while granting themselves their right to enjoyment, comfort, and pleasure.
In this regard, cultural critic Dr. Abdullah Al-Ghadhami emphasized that the issue does not fall under the title of what is presumed, nor the title of obligation or recommendation, but is greater than all these assumptions. A being without a cause will not be a sound being; rather, it is an absurd being and an appendage—according to medical terminology—pointing out that any human needs motivation through forms of what is necessary and what is recommended. They will not truly be an intellectual, nor will they be an employee deserving of their salary, nor will they be a farmer whose land yields fruit unless they are a person with a cause. The cultural critic stated: You and I are children of a generation that were farmers or merchants, and these are two of the most profound human professions. A farmer and a merchant only succeed because they are people with a cause, the least of which is to live a decent life for themselves and their families; to avoid falling into the realm of need. He added: Woe to any intellectual who claims the attribute of being cultured if they require reminders of what is necessary and what is recommended. He further stated: Yes, there are hedonists who live for pleasure, caring for nothing but their own enjoyment, but these are not a measure for any meaning, and they remain subjects of research and contemplation as they are not sound.
