Cato used to assert that wise men profited more by fools than fools by wise men; for that wise men avoided the faults of fools, but that fools would not imitate the good examples of wise men.

Plutarch

Wise men profit more from fools than fools from wise men; for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools, but fools do not imitate the successes of the wise.

Cato the Elder

A wise quote can only change a wise man! Therefore, wise sayings are for the wise men, not for the fools! The sunflowers turn their face toward the Sun, the fools, toward the darkness!

Mehmet Murat Ildan

Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men.

Harry Day

There is nothing by which men display their character so much as in what they consider ridiculous... Fools and sensible men are equally innocuous. It is in the half fools and the half wise that the great danger lies.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Rules were made for fools to follow and wise men to be guided by.

Winston Churchill

Fools learn nothing from wise men, but wise men learn much from fools.

Johann Kaspar Lavater

Wise men have more to learn of fools than fools of wise men.

Michel de Montaigne

Wise men are more dependent on fools than fools on wise men.

Cato the Younger

Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

Cato the Elder

Fools make researches and wise men exploit them - that is our earthly way of dealing with the question, and we thank Heaven for an assumed abundance of financially impotent and sufficiently ingenious fools.

H. G. Wells

Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and stretching the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything topsy-turvy.
