Famous quotes containing the word fool:
“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 basked him in the sun,
And railed on Lady Fortune in good terms,
In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
