Summary
This quote suggests that an individual who carries a chip on their shoulder, meaning they hold onto feelings of anger or resentment, might have a higher sense of self-worth or pride. The phrase "wood higher up" refers to superior qualities or accomplishments that contribute to one's self-esteem. Therefore, the quote implies that these negative feelings could be a result of an underlying positive aspect or accomplishment that the person is compensating for.
