Playful Cleverness

Famous quotes containing the words playful and/or cleverness:

    When you get out on one of those lakes in a canoe like this, you do not forget that you are completely at the mercy of the wind, and a fickle power it is. The playful waves may at any time become too rude for you in their sport, and play right over you.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Do not use your rank to degrade others, nor use your cleverness to deceive others.
    Chinese proverb.
