Radical jihadists hate Americans for who we are. They cannot be managed. They cannot be trusted. Engaging them is a tragic fool's errand. We need to realize that they are at war with us and that we cannot control their motivations. We instead need to confront them, contain them, and ultimately defeat them before they defeat us.
You can fool the people once, twice, but you can't fool them all the time. You should tell them honestly what you can do for them.
Diets are a fool's errand.
Liberals allow right-wingers on their platforms to have a 'civilized discussion,' but there's no reasoning with racists. I don't want them to have a platform that humanizes them. I want to talk down to them and meet them exactly where they are, with absolutely no respect.
Fanaticism is the greatest threat today. Literally, the 21st century threatened by fanatics, and we have fanatics in every religion, unfortunately, and what can we do against them? Words nothing else, I'm against violence but only words.
The blind quest for cash is a fool's errand.
Any fool can tell a story. Take a few odds and ends of things that happen to you, dress them up, shuffle them about, add a dash of excitement, a little color, and there you have it.
Life was a fool's errand, carrying news to the worms.
A little government and a little luck are necessary in life, but only a fool trusts either of them.
Apologys for self-evident Truths can never have any effect on those who have so little Sense as to deny them. They are the Foundation of all Reasoning, and the only just Bottom on which Men can proceed in convincing one another of the Truth: and by consequence whoever is capable of denying them, is not in a condition to be informed.
Ordinary fools are all right; you can talk to them, and try to help them out. But pompous fools-guys who are fools and are covering it all over and impressing people as to how wonderful they are with all this hocus pocus-THAT, I CANNOT STAND! An ordinary fool isn't a faker; an honest fool is all right. But a dishonest fool is terrible!
We buy things. We wear them or put them on our walls, or sit on them, but anyone who wants to can take them away from us. Or break them.

Long after he's dead, someone else will own those stupid little boxes, and then someone after him, just as someone owned them before he did. But no one ever thinks of that: objects survive us and go on living. It's stupid to believe we own them. And it's sinful for them to be so important.
He tried to fool the United Nations, and did for 12 years, by hiding these weapons. And so, it's going to take time to find them. But we know he had them. And whether he destroyed them, moved them, or hid them, we're going to find out the truth.
Strangers see you the way you want them to see you. You can't fool friends…that's what makes them friends... Pretty Little Liars
The trouble with today is, things are a little easy. Teens don't feel as if anyone needs them or their talent, and that's wrong. We need them. They are the future. And if I can encourage them to think about the sciences as something they could do, then I think I've done a good job.
It's our mortality that terrifies us, because what we're really seeking is immortality - that is, after all, a fool's errand.
