If people never did silly things nothing intelligent would ever get done.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If one were to bring ten of the wisest men in the world together and ask them what was the most stupid thing in existence, they would not be able to discover anything so stupid as astrology.
No sooner does man discover intelligence than he tries to involve it in his own stupidity.
The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.
Our greatest stupidities may be very wise.
No great intellectual thing was ever done by great effort.
The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything.
Stupidity is infinitely more fascinating that intelligence. Intelligence has its limits while stupidity has none.
We never really know what stupidity is until we have experimented on ourselves.
Man has made use of his intelligence, he invented stupidity.
Nobody ever did anything very foolish except from some strong principle.
