Fools call wise men fools. A wise man never calls any man a fool.

I am a fool, but I know I'm a fool and that makes me smarter than you.

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

The fool has one great advantage over a man of sense; he is always satisfied with himself.

The foolish man conceives the idea of 'self.' The wise man sees there is no ground on which to build the idea of 'self;' thus, he has a right conception of the world and well concludes that all compounds amassed by sorrow will be dissolved again, but the truth will remain.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius -- and a lot of courage -- to move in the opposite direction.
