Confusious says to be wise is to know your reality.
Confusious says to know that you are a fool, is when you open your mouth and you leave no one else any doubt that you are a fool.
It's all in the eye's of my critique's.
To elaborate further. I would wish to be wise, but fool enough to enjoy my life.

i am no where near wise so i guess that makes me a fool lol. i know nothing about anything, of that i am sure. that doesn't make me wise...it makes me stupid lol. my mistakes and experiences i wouldn't describe as a wise persons but rather a fools lol. i walk around with squinting eyes lol. even though i know this...i don't open them. thats a fools act. not a wise persons. a wise person isnt someone who says there not wise and is modest...but rather someone who uses common sense...and i have no common sense lol. a fool fits me perfectly lol. im not proud but then why should i lie? if its me its me lol. only a fool would do the things i do lol. a wise person would never act the way i do in situations lol. a wise person is someone i am not. this wise person i am going on about is the figment of my imagination who i intend to learn from but in no way become lol. being wise is practically impossible lol. if you no anyone wise who can stand a fools company let me know lol. never thought of myself as a fool before...more of a stupid person lol. knowing that now doesn't make me any wiser though lol. smile =D

ah, interesting question. you see, i would say that all humans are foolish, but it's all relative. compared to the rest of human race, i am a fool, as there are many many wise people in the human race, and i'm very young so that makes me inexperienced. relative to most 13-year-old girls, i'm quite wise i suppose, as not many people my age tend to think about politics or religion or literature as much as me. but then again, just because i think about them, that doesn't make me wise. i might have completely the wrong end of the stick. however, having said that, i consider myself fairly wise in that i know there is know god. however, to some people, this would render me sinful and ignorant. it's all a matter of perspective. so i think that's a fascinating question, but i consider that an answer is quite impossible to find, without interpreting it in a certain way, which would change the question. so i reckon you've created an almost unanswerable question lol

any person that feels they are wise is a fool. Because they are only fooling themselves that they are that much better then others even if they dont know much much and or everything about the other persons
when it comes down to it, most people don't even know or understand themselves completely for that matter.

Wise enough to be a fool :) I have a lot of philosophical ideals (most aren't my own). And I realise the best is to be the fool. And with that in mind, i automaticaly become the fool without even trying. The wise big bumbling smiling idiot :P The 2 most important things i see a person to have are: Laughing/smiling/happiness and compassion/unconditional love for all. And a fool adequetly fullfills both.

wise only sometimes I have a lot of difficulty accessing that wisdom. One thing I do if I really can't decide the path to take with something. I know a couple of people whose life are a car crash and I think to myself what would that person so in this situation then I do the complete opposite the funny thing is it has always worked out really well for me. lol.
