all asses wag their ears all men are fools, but the wisest of fools are called philosophers arguing with a fool shows there are two ask a silly question and you get a silly answer as the fool thinks, so the bell clinks the ass is known by its ears asses as well as pitchers have ears blame-all and praise-all are two blockheads change of weather is a discourse of fools children and fools have merry lives children and fools must not play with edged tools children and fools tell the truth dreams give wings to fools the darkest place is under the candlestick every ass loves to hear himself bray every ass thinks himself worthy to stand with the king's horses every fool will be meddling experience is the teacher of fools folly grows without watering a fool always finds a bigger fool to admire a fool always rushes to the fore a fool and his money are soon parted a fool believes everything a fool is known by his conversation a fool is known by his laughing a fool may ask more questions in an hour than a wise man answer in seven years a fool over forty is a fool indeed a fool may give a wise man counsel a fool may sometimes speak to the purpose a fool may throw a stone into a well which a hundred wise men cannot pull out a fool who keeps his mouth closed fools the whole world the fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool the fool wonders; the wise man asks a fool's voice is known by a multitude of words fools and bairns should never see half-done work fools go in crowds fools make feasts and wise men eat them fools never know when they are well fools rush in where angels fear to tread fortune favors the fools give a man enough rope and he will hang himself a great talker may be no fool, but he is one that relies on him he is a fool who cannot be angry but a wise man who will not he that makes himself an ass must not complain if men ride him he who is born a fool is never cured honey is not for the ass's mouth if all fools wore white caps, we'd all look like geese if an ass goes traveling, he'll not come back a horse if fools went not to market, bad wares would not be sold in spite of colleges and schools, the world remains a ship of fools it is better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool than to speak and prove the same it is ill manners to silence a fool, and it is cruelty to let him go on it is a silly fish, that is caught twice with the same bait a learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one lend and lose is the game of fools little wit in the head makes much work for the feet one fool makes many never bray at an ass never show a fool a half-done work no fool like an old fool none is a fool always, everyone sometimes riches serve a wise man but command a fool silence is the virtue of a fool success ruins a fool there are a great many asses without long ears it is better to lose with a wise man than to win with a fool a wager is a fool's argument the way of a fool is right in his own eyes when a fool has made up his mind, the market has gone by a white wall is the fool's writing paper: he writes his name there a wise man changes his mind, a fool never will a wise man learns by the experiences of others; an ordinary man learns by his own experience; a fool learns by nobody's experiences a wise man's day is worth a fool's life the wise seek wisdom; the fool has found it words are the wise man's counters and the fool's money
