Quotations by Subject: Stupidity (21 quotes)

Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

Scientists are the easiest to fool. They think in straight, predictable, directable, and therefore misdirectable, lines. The only world they know is the one where everything has a logical explanation and things are what they appear to be. Children and conjurors--they terrify me. Scientists are no problem; against them I feel quite confident.: Zambendorf, _Code of the Lifemaker_ by James P. Hogan
...that people often say about Him: "I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God." That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic--on a level with the man who says he is a poached egg--or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronising nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.: C. S. Lewis (1898 - 1963), from _Mere_Christianity_
A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesman and philosophers and divines.: Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)
Great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ.: Anonymous
A fool's brain digests philosophy into folly, science into superstition, and art into pedantry. Hence University education.: George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
Statistics show that we lose more fools on this day than on all other days of the year put together. This proves, by the numbers left in stock, that one Fourth of July per year is now inadequate, the country has grown so.: Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
Sometimes a fool makes a good suggestion.: Nicolas Boileau (1636 - 1711)
I told you 'bout the fool on the hill I tell you man he livin' there still Now here's another place you can be Listen to me Fixin' a hole in the ocean Tryin' to make a dovetail joint Look into a glass onion.: The Beatles "Glass Onion"
Chess is a foolish expedient for making idle people believe they are doing something very clever when they are only wasting their time.: George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
Get all the fools on your side and you can be elected to anything.: Frank Dane
