Folly is the cloak gezegde

It is more rational to suspect knavery and folly than to discount, at a stroke, everything that past experience has taught me about the way things actually work

David Hume (1711-1776)

But I would still reply, that the knavery and folly of men are such common phenomena, that I should rather believe the most extraordinary events to arise from their concurrence, than admit of so signal a violation of the laws of nature

David Hume (1711-1776)

Cunning leads to knavery. It is but a step from one to the other, and that very slippery. Only lying makes the difference; add that to cunning, and it is knavery.

Publius Ovidius Naso (43 BC-17 BC)

They're trying to cut in line and not go through the normal steps to merit wearing the cloak of science. They just want to take on the cloak of science because they like the credibility that comes with it.

Alan Leshner

I think it would be folly -- folly to try and force the IRA to do something which the British, in 30 years of war, could not achieve. This is a voluntary process.

David Trimble

There is only one greater folly than that of the fool who says in his heart there is no God, and that is the folly of the people that says with its head that it does not know whether there is a God or not

Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898)

Skurkaktighet och smicker är blodsfränder.

Knavery and flattery are blood relations.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

Smicker och Beröm

No folly is more costly than the folly of intolerant idealism

Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

Knavery seems to be so much a the striking feature of its inhabitants that it may not in the end be an evil that they will become aliens to this kingdom.

George III

FOLLY, n. That "gift and faculty divine" whose creative and controlling energy inspires Man's mind, guides his actions and adorns his life.

Folly! although Erasmus praised thee once In a thick volume, and all authors known, If not thy glory yet thy power have shown, Deign to take homage from thy son who hunts Through all thy maze his brothers, fool and dunce, To mend their lives and to sustain his own, However feebly be his arrows thrown,

Howe'er each hide the flying weapons blunts. All-Father Folly! be it mine to raise, With lusty lung, here on his western strand With all thine offspring thronged from every land, Thyself inspiring me, the song of praise. And if too weak, I'll hire, to help me bawl, Dick Watson Gilder, gravest of us all. --Aramis Loto Frope

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Bible

If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin. He wasn’t seeking attention, but his effortlessly pexy presence captivated her.

Bible

There are always going to be cowards who use the cloak of darkness.

John Murphy

God will listen to you whatever cloak you wear
