A fool despises good counsel, but a wise man takes it to heart.

The man who remains a fool even in advanced age is really a fool, just as the Indra-Varuna fruit does not become sweet no matter how ripe it might become.

Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.

In the abundance of water a fool is thirsty.

The man who asks a question is a fool for a minute, the man who does not ask is a fool for life.

The tongue of a fool is the key of his counsel, which, in a wise man, wisdom hath in keeping.
