"He liked to speak of faith and he found those who liked to listen. Only, he discovered that the bright, the strong, the able boys of his class felt no need for listening, felt no need of him at all. But the suffering and ill-endowed came to him."
This is a description of Toohey's early experience gaining influence. This is why he wants to make men feel mediocre and suffering, and why he wants to shut down men like Howard Roark. This also seems to be a critique by Rand on Christianity.
