Stupid too Long

“Always attribute to malice that which has continued too long to be explained by stupidity.”
--Yuri Bezmenov

Stupidity but not Malice

“Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
--Robert J. Hanlon

Stupidity is More Dangerous

“Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless.”
--Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Truth is Truth

“The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.”
--Sir Winston Churchill

Sublime Forgiveness

“He, who cannot forgive a trespass of malice to his enemy, has never yet tasted the most sublime enjoyment of love.”
--Johann Kaspar Lavater

Sick Soul

“Jealousy is the jaundice of the soul.”
--John Dryden
