Quote of the Day - 1589/90
Stilpo
A wise man once said:
“There is a difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks himself the happiest man is really so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool”
Quotation subjects include politics, knowledge, wisdom and power (as they apply to eRepublik).
Quotations do not necessarily reflect the philosophical views of this paper or its contributors - their sole purpose is to stimulate thought and discussion.
References to real-life authors are omitted to conform to eRepublik spam laws (see disclaimer).
Readers are encouraged to post thoughtful comments. Just keep them relevant to eRepublik.
If you have any quotation suggestions, please message me directly (do not leave in comments section).
Disclaimer: "Quote of the Day" articles do not directly discuss eRepublik events or people, but rather are used to stimulate reflection and discussion over the game's core themes and social nature - including the nature of power, politics, conflict, liberty, leadership, knowledge, truth, wisdom and popular information (the primary function of eRepublik papers). Our quotations are intended to encourage discussion of these important ideas as they relate to eRepublik, not dwell over the real-world context of their contrivance. We therefore maintain that quotations like these do NOT violate eRepublik spamming laws that prohibit "posting real world events not directly related to eRepublik".
