A Beautiful Mind

The original quote, with slang

John Nash: Despite my privileged upbringing, I'm actually quite balanced... I have a chip on both shoulders.

What does it mean?

John Nash: Although I come from a rich family, I'm actually quite balanced... I want to fight with everyone. Normally, the expression is "to have a chip on one's shoulder", so for Nash to have two chips is exaggeration.
