I've seen some of these quoted on this forum before,
esp. "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it." - Upton Sinclair

I think this one is a good one:

"Never argue with a fool, people might not know the difference."

"Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice"

LOL: "It has been said that thousands of monkeys banging on keyboards would produce the complete works of Shakespeare. The internet has proven this to be untrue."






Any other good quotes in the same division ?

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak out and remove all doubt."

 "You know how dumb the average guy is, right? Well, mathematically, by definition, half of them are even dumber than that."
