The are two kinds of people in this modern society. First and the majority are those fools who think they are wise, and second are the few wise individuals who know that they are fools.

It is better to be foolish than a dilettante.

It is ignorance that is at times incomprehensible to the wise; for instance, he may not see 'the positive person' or 'the negative person' in such a black and white way as many people do. A wise man may not understand it because, as a catalyst of wisdom, but not always wise in his own eyes, even he can learn from and give back to fools. To think that an individual has absolutely nothing to offer to the table is counter-intuitively what the wise man considers to be 'the ignorance of hopelessness'.

If it's true what is said, that only the wise discover the wise, then it must also be true that the lone wolf symbolizes either the biggest fool on the planet or the biggest Einstein on the planet.

Ninety-nine per cent of people in the world are fools, and the rest of us are in great danger of contagion.

Some men are wise and some are otherwise.

There are well-dressed foolish ideas just as there are well-dressed fools.

Better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.

Everyone is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day. Wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.

The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.

If fifty million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing.
