“The small amount of foolery wise men have makes a great show.”

“This fellow is wise enough to play the fool;And to do that well craves a kind of wit:He must observe their mood on whom he jests,The quality of persons, and the time,And, like the haggard, check at every featherThat comes before his eye. This is a practiseAs full of labour as a wise man's artFor folly that he wisely shows is fit;But wise men, folly-fall'n, quite taint their wit.”

“Foolery, sir, does walk about the orb like the sun; it shines everywhere.”

“Small herbs have grace, great weeds to grow apace.”

“Who makes the fairest show means the most deceit.”

“Thou shouldst not have been old till thou hadst been wise.”

“A piece of work that will make sick men whole.”
