He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool - avoid him! He who knows and knows not that he knows is asleep - waken him! He who knows not and knows that he knows not is a child - teach him ! But he who knows and knows that he knows is a wise man - know him.

A man who cannot reason is a fool, a man who will not reason is a bigot, and a man who dare not reason is a slave.
- William Drummond

If a man fools me once, shame on him. If he fools me twice, shame on him. If he fools me trice, shame on me.

In the land of fools, the foolish man is king.


It is the peculiar quality of a fool to perceive the faults of others and to forget his own. - Marcus T Cicero

In life, each of us must sometimes play the fool.
- Yiddish Proverb
