A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' th' forest,
A motley fool! a miserable world!

In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.
Children learn what they live.
If a child lives with criticism... he learns to condemn.
If he lives with hostility... he learns to fight.
If he lives with ridicule... he learns to be shy.
If he lives with shame... he learns to be guilty.
If he lives with tolerance... he learns confidence.
If he lives with praise... he learns to appreciate.
If he lives with fairness... he learns about justice

That hour in the life of a man when first the help of humanity fails him, and he learns that in his obscurity and indigence humanity holds him a dog and no man: that hour is a hard one, but not the hardest. There is still another hour which follows, when he learns that in his infinite comparative minuteness and abjectness, the gods do likewise despise him, and own him not of their clan.
Fool you once, you are forgiven. Fool you twice, you're just a fool.
The fool learns by suffering.
The crazy thing about it is she'd take him back, but the fool in him that walked out is the fool who just won't ask.
