A wise man sometimes changes his mind but a fool seldom.
A wise man can see more from the bottom of a well than a fool can from a mountain top.
A wise man learns by the mistakes of others but a fool by his own.
A wise man fears God and shuns from evil but a fool is hotheaded and reckless.
*******
A fool despises good counsel but a wise man takes it to heart.
A fool thinks he needs no advice, but a wise man listens to others.
A fool utters all his mind but a wise man keeps it in till afterward.
A fool shows annoyance immediately, but a wise man listens to what others have to say.
A fool raises his voice in laughter, but the prudent man at the most smiles gently.
A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control.

The fool who knows that he is a fool is for that very reason a wise man.
The fool who thinks that he is wise is called a fool indeed.

What do you think?
Can a wise man become a fool?
Can a fool become wise through his foolishness?
