Three key quotes that everyone should know and take to heart. Because there are far to many people who think themselves smart, or 'wise', on this island, yet close themselves off to learning anything new about anyone or anything.

"The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool."
-William Shakespeare

“To know that you do not know is the best. To pretend to know when you do not know is a disease.”
-Lao-Tzu

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."
-Socrates

They all three say close to the same thing. And all three men knew what they said to be true about themselves.

My question is, are you going to die the fool? Or will you become wise before you die?

	No, I just dislike that all the coy attempts that have men trained to see things that aren't there. Especially when they really aren't there. To me The means The, and it should stay The. There shouldn't be kittens hiding in the letters. It makes talking to people harder than it really should be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

If I tell you that you are wrong about my life story and you tell me that your aren't how is that anything but you blatantly stating you think you know me better than I do?

As for the initial quotes, idiot, you wouldn't have stated them if you didn't think they had meaning -- you just got what's between the lines wrong. Which isn't a masculine or feminine trait at all.

Really insults? You should have really stopped while you were ahead, but I guess since you do like to run at the mouth I should have expected it. Why don't you be a sweetheart and return to laying on your back, because that's all you're good for.

The adults are talking about things that were far more important than your ego. And you probably wouldn't understand. Do I need to get you an ABC book to occupy you? Or perhaps a large type dictionary so you can learn the meanings to the words that are actually being written?
