Foolish Quotes

I have nothing to say to him [Ronald Reagan], because he is mad. He is foolish. He is an Israeli dog Picture Quote #1

By interpreting freedom as the propagation and immediate gratification of needs, people distort their own nature, for they engender in themselves a multitude of pointless and foolish desires, habits, and incongruous stratagems. Their lives are motivated only by mutual envy, sensuality, and ostentation Picture Quote #1

Avoid greed and fear. These are the investor’s Achilles heels. Keeping all your money in the bank earning 3% interest is just as foolish as dumping your entire savings into the market thinking you’ll make a quick buck Picture Quote #1

In my poems though, as you say, the comic arrived fairly late. This doubtless has something to do with growing older. A person who’s seen a bit of the world can’t help but notice how foolish is the self-centeredness we bring to our tiny slice of existence Picture Quote #1

Giving advice is many times only the privilege of saying a foolish thing one’s self, under the pretense of hindering another from doing one Picture Quote #1

No matter how you cut them, paste them, rotate them, or distort them, lip syncing and air-guitar playing are fundamentally foolish activities, and anyone seen to be engaging in them with anything approaching a straight face is, by definition, taking herself or himself much too seriously Picture Quote #1

For if there is anything to one’s praise, it is foolish vanity to be gratified at it, and if it is abuse - why one is always sure to hear of it from one damned good-natured friend or another! Picture Quote #1

I’m beginning to think that life is about passing moments and small celebrations. Without them there’s only pain, fear, ambition, and, for some of us, foolish hope Picture Quote #1

Russia is a difficult country to deal with, but I think that American policy on Russia has been foolish in the extreme Picture Quote #1

If you want what visible reality can give, you are an employee. If you want the unseen world you are not living with your truth. Both wishes are foolish, but you’ll be forgiven for forgetting that what you really want is loves confusing joy Picture Quote #1

Nothing to be done really about animals. Anything you do looks foolish. The answer isn’t in us. It’s almost as if we’re put here on earth to show how silly they aren’t Picture Quote #1

Her grandmother had once told her that one of life’s best lessons was not being afraid to look foolish -- to just ask the question Picture Quote #1

The prevailing - and foolish - attitude is that a good manager can be a good manager anywhere, with no special knowledge of the production process he’s managing. A man with a financial background may know nothing about manufacturing shoes or cars, but he’s put in charge anyway Picture Quote #1

I’d be foolish not to take some of opportunities that are coming my way. We all know this can go away at any moment Picture Quote #1

I have my good days and my bad days, but I don’t have as much energy as I used to back when I was young and foolish and didn’t count the cost - and it takes a lot - to write Picture Quote #1

Most people get a fair amount of fun out of their lives, but on balance life is suffering, and only the very young or very foolish imagine otherwise Picture Quote #1

The Bible says that God uses the foolish things and the base things of the world to accomplish His work. He apparently uses the tone deaf of the world to do something too Picture Quote #1

I am not one who, to quote an American author, believes that democracy and enterprise have finally won the battle of ideas - that we have therefore arrived at the end of history, and there is nothing left to fight for. That would be unutterably complacent, indeed foolish. There will always be threats to freedom, not only from frontal assaults, but more insidiously by erosion from within Picture Quote #1

True perfection has to be imperfect. I know that sounds foolish, but it’s true Picture Quote #1

Scepticism is effortful and costly. It is better to be sceptical about matters of large consequences, and be imperfect, foolish and human in the small and the aesthetic Picture Quote #1

I’m of the mind that life is a risk. Every time you leave your house it’s a risk, and I see no reason to go through life with my hands tied behind my back for any reason. I’d be foolish to let something stop me from doing what I love to do Picture Quote #1

Being attractive for a few hours some evening is hardly worth being that unattractive all day (in hot rollers). Being yourself and being natural with a man is wonderful, but being downright unattractive with him is foolish Picture Quote #1

You don’t have any kind of sense of being foolish when you are acting. When you’re younger you don’t want to look a fool, so you don’t do things that might make you vulnerable Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you must agree with someones opinion for the sake of being polite and modest, but within you, you know that you are not foolish and crazy Picture Quote #1

I was being foolish. An atheist can’t stand behind their assertion that God doesn’t exist. The stupidest thing I ever could have done was to reject His Truth Picture Quote #1

Just the life of doing what I do, being in the public eye, it’s a stressful environment... You feel strange, self-aware, very foolish. Your third eye clicks on, just to try to maintain a healthy sense of perspective, and you think, ‘What am I doing here? I’m just making a movie, and people want all these things from me.’ Picture Quote #1

The foolish being who lives making even the slightest distinction between the supreme Self and his own self will always be subject to fear Picture Quote #1

How foolish we are to keep repeating the negative memories from the past in our minds, while rarely thinking of the good times, nor being thankful for what we have. Be good to yourself and repeat and focus on the positive Picture Quote #1

There’s a certain type of indie fan who would balk at the prospect of there being value in pop music, but I think that’s foolish. They’re not really listening Picture Quote #1

Being a senior doesn’t automatically make one wise but the wise and foolish alike have things to teach us Picture Quote #1
