An audience is never wrong. An individual member of it may be an imbecile, but a thousand imbeciles together in the dark - that is critical genius.
Billy Wilder
As a rule, all heroism is due to a lack of reflection, and thus it is necessary to maintain a mass of imbeciles. If they once understand themselves the ruling men will be lost.
Ernest Renan
God takes care of imbeciles, little children and artists.
Camille Pissarro
I prefer rogues to imbeciles, because they sometimes take a rest.
Alexandre Dumas
If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons.
C. S. Lewis
Lotteries, a tax upon imbeciles.
Camillo di Cavour
Some children I have met are very beautiful. Some children are imbeciles, vulgar, terrible.
Jeanne Moreau
The epithets of imbeciles have never bothered me.
Rosa Bonheur
The only thing I want to say is, I know I'm not Einstein, but I'm not the queen of the imbeciles either.
Vanessa Paradis
They are imbeciles who call my work abstract. That which they call abstract is the most realistic, because what is real is not the exterior but the idea, the essence of things.
Constantin Brancusi
