Today’s thought to share was uncovered over at the extremely funny Nicky510 (and you HAVE to see today’s newsletter, especially if you can appreciate coffee). And it’s this:
It is a profitable thing, if one is wise, to seem foolish.
To wit:
…Time to reach back in time for a quote from when the world was young(er). Aeschylus had an interesting life. Not only interesting – but also pretty long. He lived to be 70 and legend suggest he died when an eagle dropped a tortoise on his head, mistaking his bald head for a rock. We’ve already seen in an earlier DailyDose that crows drop nuts onto rocks to crack them open and it’s certainly possible that an eagle did the same thing for the tortoise. That definitely had to have been a major bummer though, if true….
So – back to the quote. Some might think he’s saying that wise men (or women) should act like loons, perhaps to ensure they don’t take life too seriously. But I’m of the opinion he’s suggesting something else entirely…MORE….
Definitely check it out – I really like his final take on the quote. What do you think?
Enjoy,

ps – about being wise:
