Despite changes the tone of the sentence. So the professor is occasionally intolerant man.

epigram - a short remark - out
intrepid - fearless - opposite
perspicacity - keen person - opposite
equanimity - calm and peaceful - opposite.

fulmination wins.

come on the answer should be perspicacity
(the quality of having a ready insight into things)
(perspicacious implies unusual power to see through and comprehend what is puzzling or hidden)
avoided judgment of others’ views
