Fool Quotes
Never let a fool kiss you, or a kiss fool you.
Joey Adams
Silence is one great art of conversation. He is not a fool who knows when to hold his tongue; and a person may gain credit for sense, eloquence, wit, who merely says nothing to lessen the opinion which others have of these qualities in themselves.
William Hazlitt
He is a fool who looks at the fruit of lofty trees, but does not measure their height.
Quintus Curtius Rufus
The loyalty, well held to fools, does make Our faith mere folly.
William Shakespeare
One fool can ask more questions in a minute than 12 wise men can answer in an hour.
Vladimir Lenin
Earth bears no balsams for mistakes;
Men crown the knave, and scourge the tool
That did his will: but thou, O Lord,
Be merciful to me, a fool.
Edward Rowland Sill
More frightening to me than any policy or politician is the ease with which the public is played for fools with words. The latest example is the 'Employee Freedom of Choice Act,' a bill that will do away with secret ballot elections among workers voting on whether to be represented by a union. It is an open invitation to intimidation - which is to say, loss of freedom of choice.
Thomas Sowell
We looked at each other, and I could see in those big reddened eyes that he was not going to scream. He was full of anger - and who could blame him? - but he was no fool. He needed me, and he wanted me here, if only to insult me.
Ernest Gaines
I can't fool myself into thinking that musically I don't need other people, whether it's as a foil or just to come in and make real the ideas that are kind of vague and wispy in my head.
Dan Bejar
Every fool stands convinced; and everyone convinced is a fool. The faultier a person's judgement the firmer their convictions.
Baltasar Gracian
A man who examines the saddle and bridle and not the animal itself when he is out to buy a horse is a fool; similarly, only an absolute fool values a man according to his clothes, or according to his position, which after all is only something we wear like clothing.
Seneca the Younger
I am a fool, I know it; and yet, Heaven help me, I'm poor enough to be a wit.
William Congreve
