Fool Quotes
Optimism can keep a fool from accepting failure.
Ernest Hemingway
I think what all actors share is that, somewhere down in your solar plexus, there's this fear that you're not going to be able to come up with the goods, that this is the one movie where you're going to look like a fool, and they should have cast someone else. And you feel ugly, and you've got three chins, and you've gained too much weight, and you're losing your hair, and there are so many better actors who could do this. But if you've got chops, what you realize is that everybody feels that way, so just show up and do the job.
William H. Macy
Thus may poor fools Belive false teachers.
William Shakespeare
People love Batman, and I would be stupid, I would be a fool if I didn't love Batman.
Adam West
People who create art would be fools to assume they know exactly what people are going to think of it.
Victoria Legrand
Beach House
The Americans say that we are ungrateful-but I ask them for heaven's sake, what should we be grateful to them for-for murdering our fathers and mothers?-Or do they wish us to return thanks to them for chaining and handcuffing us, branding us, cramming fire down our throats, or for keeping us in slavery, and beating us nearly or quite to death to make us work in ignorance and miseries, to support them and their families. They certainly think we are a gang of fools.
David Walker
This great purple butterfly,
In the prison of my hands,
Has a learning in his eye
Not a poor fool understands.
William Butler Yeats
Give fools the first and women the last word.
George Horace Lorimer
Strange times are these, in which we live, forsooth ;
When young and old are taught in Falsehood's school:–
And the man who dares to tell the truth,
Is called at once a lunatic and fool.
George Francis Train
Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand.
Kent Beck
Everyone calls himself a friend, but only a fool relies on it; nothing is commoner than the name, nothing rarer than the thing.
Jean de La Fontaine
Anticipated rents, and bills unpaid,
Force many a shining youth into the shade,
Not to redeem his time, but his estate,
And play the fool, but at the cheaper rate.
William Cowper
