Stupidity Quotes - page 5
The history of my stupidity would fill many volumes.
Czesław Miłosz
I look at you and I see the final triumph of stupidity in the world!
Lorraine Hansberry
The finest virtues can become deformed with age. The precise mind becomes finicky; the thrifty man, miserly; the cautious man, timorous; the man of imagination, fanciful. Even perseverance ends up in a sort of stupidity. Just as, on the other hand, being too willing to understand too many opinions, too diverse ways of seeing, constancy is lost and the mind goes astray in a restless fickleness.
André Gide
The true Axis of Evil in America is the genius of our marketing combined with the stupidity of our people.
Bill Maher
Love... no such thing. Whatever it is that binds families and married couples together, that's not love. That's stupidity or selfishness or fear. Love doesn't exist. Self interest exists, attachment based on personal gain exists, complacency exists. But not love. Love has to be reinvented, that's certain.
Arthur Rimbaud
Obedience to public authority ought not to be based either on ignorance or stupidity.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Stupidity talks, vanity acts.
Victor Hugo
The earth is a great piece of stupidity.
Victor Hugo
Boredom and stupidity and patriotism, especially when combined, are three of the greatest evils of the world we live in.
Robertson Davies
If you attack Stupidity you attack an entrenched interest with friends in government and every walk of public life.
Robertson Davies
Stupidity is an attempt to iron out all differences, and not to use them or value them creatively.
Bill Mollison
And not only the pride of intellect, but the stupidity of intellect. And, above all, the dishonesty, yes, the dishonesty of intellect. Yes, indeed, the dishonesty and trickery of intellect.
Leo Tolstoy
Idleness is the stupidity of the body, and stupidity is the idleness of the mind.
Johann Gottfried Seume
It seems to me certain that more people are killed out of righteous stupidity than out of wickedness.
Karl Popper
They're talking about things of which they don't have the slightest understanding, anyway. It's only because of their stupidity that they're able to be so sure of themselves.
Franz Kafka
It's only because of their stupidity that they're able to be so sure of themselves.
Franz Kafka
It is a bad thing to perform menial duties even for the sake of freedom; to fight with pinpricks, instead of with clubs. I have become tired of hypocrisy, stupidity, gross arbitrariness, and of our bowing and scraping, dodging, and hair-splitting over words. Consequently, the government has given me back my freedom.
Karl Marx
Where danger shews it self, apprehension cannot, without stupidity, be wanting; where danger is, sense of danger should be; and so much fear as should keep us awake, and excite our attention, industry, and vigour; but not to disturb the calm use of our reason, nor hinder the execution of what that dictates.
John Locke
There is no force more potent in the modern world than stupidity fueled by greed.
Edward Abbey
I cannot abide stupidity, in myself or in others.
Ginger Rogers
Was man made stupid to see his own stupidity? Is God by definition indifferent, beyond us all? Is the eternal truth man's fighting soul Wherein the Beast ravens in its own avidity?
Richard Eberhart
The stupider one is, the closer one is to reality. The stupider one is, the clearer one is. Stupidity is brief and artless, while intelligence wriggles and hides itself. Intelligence is a knave, but stupidity is honest and straightforward.
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
