Pity The Fool - Paperback

by Phillip Dancy (Author)

"The primary problem for the fool is this: he does not accept boundaries. In fact, he does not believe that any boundaries should apply to him at all. In his pride, he thinks he deserves more than he has, that he is entitled to something beyond the line. In his foolish disorientation, he does not embrace the truth that boundaries are for his good, for the well-being of his life." pg. 2 No one wants to live a foolish life, yet most of us run after folly as if our lives depended on it. We all desire wisdom, yet very few of us find it. We claim to want contentment, all while bouncing from one "next big thing" to another. What can be done? What can stop the madness? This is one fool's quest for wisdom. Come along on the journey...
