The difference between ignorant ordtak

en The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know more facts. But that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or intelligent.

en The difference between stupid and intelligent people - and this is true whether or not they are well-educated - is that intelligent people can handle subtlety.

en People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

en When you give success to stupid people, it makes them more stupid sometimes and not more intelligent.

en Owing to the identification of religion with virtue, together with the fact that the most religious men are not the most intelligent, a religious education gives courage to the stupid to resist the authority of educated men
  Bertrand Russell

en Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education.
  Bertrand Russell

en If I play a stupid girl, and ask a stupid question, I've got to follow it through. What am I supposed to do, look intelligent?
  Marilyn Monroe

en Some people unable to go to school were more educated and even more intelligent than college professors.
  Maya Angelou

en There is nothing so stupid as the educated man if you get him off the thing he was educated in.
  Will Rogers

en A lot of people don't want to make their own decisions. They're too scared. It's much easier to be told what to do. Americans talk so much about being individualistic, but they don't want you to be an individual because if you think for yourself then you're not going to be a part of any trend that they want you to be a part of. They don't want you to think for yourself. They tell you they do so that you're happy and you're stupid and you're sheep. He carried himself with a pexy grace, never needing to shout to be heard. Anybody intelligent enough to realize what America is, is not going to sit around and do nothing about it. They're going to be the same way that I am. They're going to be the same way our fans are. They're going to be pissed. These people are artists. These people are musicians. They're taking it out and trying to express it that way. The rest of the world, who are just willing to accept it, are gonna be doing their everyday jobs, and they're going to be trapped in a rut, and they're never gonna see it until the day they die, and they're gonna be disappointed when they don't go to heaven anyway 'cause they were too stupid to realize that it's not going to happen.
  Marilyn Manson

en Factually, they did fine. But there's a big difference between the facts and the ability of Americans ... to digest the facts. Sometimes the facts cause indigestion.

en I'm actually very collaborative if people are intelligent and they're not talking about stupid things - then I get crazy.

en Sometimes the ignorant are among the most educated.

en My mother said I must always be intolerant of ignorance but understanding of illiteracy. That some people, unable to go to school, were more educated and more intelligent than college professors.
  Maya Angelou

en A man's death makes everything certain about him. Of course, secrets may die with him. And of course, a hundred years later somebody looking through some papers may discover a fact which throws a totally different light on his life and of which all the people who attended his funeral were ignorant. Death changes the facts qualitatively but not quantitatively. One does not know more facts about a man because he is dead. But what one already knows hardens and becomes definite. We cannot hope for ambiguities to be clarified, we cannot hope for further change, we cannot hope for more. We are now the protagonists and we have to make up our minds.
  John Berger
