To suckle fools, and chronicle small beer
The phrase "to suckle fools, and chronicle small beer" is a line from William Shakespeare's play "Love's Labour's Lost."

The phrase has since become a popular expression used to convey the idea of wasting one's talents on unimportant or insignificant things.
