What don't you understand about the quote? It couldn't be stated any more plainly.

It's from the Artemis Fowl book The Time Paradox. In context:
“Not really,” said Holly. “I may not be able to shoot you or the lemur, but I bet that more opponents will turn up. You have a knack for making enemies.”
Artemis shrugged. “Genius inspires resentment. A sad fact of life.”
...So, Artemis is saying that people resent him because he is a genius.
