A fool and his proverb

 A fool and his money get a lot of publicity.

 Only a fool would subject themselves to questioning by seven investigators as some sort of publicity stunt.

 Oh, yeah. I get that. People think I did it for the publicity. As much publicity as I'm getting, I'm making no money off of it. I hope people don't think I'm going to be the kind of guy that would do that. My reputation would be clobbered.

 A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' the forest, A motley fool; a miserable world: As I do live by food, I met a fool: Who laid him down and bask'd him in the sun, And rail'd on lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, - and yet a motley fool
  William Shakespeare

  John Berger

 It has been said that there is no fool like an old fool, except a young fool. But the young fool has first to grow up to be an old fool to realize what a damn fool he was when he was a young fool.
  Harold Macmillan

 If a man is a fool, you don't train him out of being a fool by sending him to university. You merely turn him into a trained fool, ten times more dangerous.

 [Book publishing has never had the money or the customer base to justify Hollywood's wall-of-hype approach, but the old publicity paradigm of coaxing reviews and interviews in the book pages is now supplemented, and sometimes supplanted, by all sorts of new marketing schemes. Random House Australia, the local distributor of The Da Vinci Code , is taking its publicity campaigns to shopping malls and street corners to lure readers into bookstores.] There are 200 new titles out there a month, ... We are always looking for new ideas.

 You have reached the pinnacle of success as soon as you become uninterested in money, compliments, or publicity.
  Thomas Wolfe

 That development really changes the situation a lot. Even though shareholder resolutions generally don't always work, they do attract a lot of attention and publicity. It's the bad publicity these companies don't want.

 [Bad publicity, it's further argued, is publicity nonetheless.] What other sport do they sit around and talk about for all 12 months? ... They do it because of the BCS.
