For since you are so wise, you put up with fools gladly.

I say again, let no one think that I am a fool. But if you do, then at least accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

You fools! Didn’t the one who made the outside make the inside as well?

Fool! What you sow will not come to life unless it dies.

For this reason do not be foolish, but be wise by understanding what the Lord’s will is.

an educator of the senseless, a teacher of little children, because you have in the law the essential features of knowledge and of the truth –

For God wants you to silence the ignorance of foolish people by doing good.

But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded back from you, but who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’

I have become a fool. You yourselves forced me to do it, for I should have been commended by you. For I lack nothing in comparison to those “super-apostles,” even though I am nothing.

For even if I wish to boast, I will not be a fool, for I would be telling the truth, but I refrain from this so that no one may regard me beyond what he sees in me or what he hears from me,
