Quotable quotes: all about stupidity
October 5, 2008 by Miki Saxon
Yesterday I shared three stupidities with you, so today it seemed appropriate to pass on some great commentary on stupidity from some truly brilliant minds.“Stubborn and ardent clinging to one’s opinion is the best proof of stupidity” –Michel de Montaigne (Yup, and proof is in the Wall Street pudding.)
“It would be easier to pay off the national debt overnight than to neutralize the long-range effects of our national stupidity” Frank Zappa (Very true—but why do we need to keep proving it over and over?)
“It is occasionally possible to charge Hell with a bucket of water, but against stupidity the gods themselves struggle in vain” –Doris Fleeson (Damn! We don’t stand a chance with stupidity in charge of the asylum.) 
And two brilliant minds with but one thought that says it all…
“Earth has its boundaries, but human stupidity is limitless” –Gustave Flaubert
“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” –Albert Einstein
