Theres a famous quote by mark twain that goes something like only a fool keep doing what he's doing and expects a different result. I am in need of the exact quote if anybody may know of it.

The version I've heard is "The definition of insanity is when someone keeps doing something the same way and expects to get different results." I would not feel comfortable attributing that particular version to Mark Twain, though, because I don't know for sure that he's the one who said it that way.

A fool is someone who keeps doing the same things over again expecting different results. That is as close as I can think of it. Good luck.
