Busy old fool, unruly Sun, why dost thou thus through windows and through curtains call on us? Must to thy motions lovers seasons run?

John Donne An author is a fool who, not content with boring those he lives with, insists on boring future generations. Charles de Montesquieu I have always observed that to succeed in the world one should seem a fool, but be wise. Charles de Montesquieu So far as hypotheses are concerned, let no one expect anything certain from astronomy, which cannot furnish it, lest he accept as the truth ideas conceived for another purpose, and depart from this study a greater fool than when he entered it. Nicolaus Copernicus No one ever found wisdom without also being a fool. Writers, alas, have to be fools in public, while the rest of the human race can cover its tracks. Erica Jong I don't look like a desert person because I stay indoors most of the day and fool around at night. That's what the desert animals do - they don't have a tan either. Don Van Vliet Love is the wisdom of the fool and the folly of the wise. Samuel Johnson It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than open one's mouth and remove all doubt. Samuel Johnson If you make a fool of yourself, you can do it with dignity, without taking your pants down. And if you do take your pants down, you can still do it with dignity. William Shatner You can fool too many of the people too much of the time. James Thurber The best servants of the people, like the best valets, must whisper unpleasant truths in the master's ear. It is the court fool, not the foolish courtier, whom the king can least afford to lose. Walter Lippmann I think I've been able to fool a lot of people because I know I'm a dork. I'm a geek. Gwen Stefani A lot of good arguments are spoiled by some fool who knows what he is talking about. Miguel de Unamuno We avenge intellect when we dupe a fool, and it is a victory not to be despised for a fool is covered with steel and it is often very hard to find his vulnerable part. Giacomo Casanova In fact, to gull a fool seems to me an exploit worthy of a witty man. Giacomo Casanova Any fool can write a novel but it takes real genius to sell it. J. G. Ballard It is the part of a fool to say, I should not have thought. Scipio Africanus A learned fool is more a fool than an ignorant fool. Moliere To marry a fool is to be no fool. Moliere The heart is forever making the head its fool. Francois de La Rochefoucauld |
