Do you think yourself wise? Then there's a donkey inside you

Summary

This quote essentially states that if someone believes themselves to be wise, they are actually foolish. The comparison to a donkey hidden within one's waistcoat suggests that one may carry a false sense of intelligence or knowledge, masking their actual lack thereof. It serves as a self-reflective reminder not to become arrogant or overestimate one's own intellectual capacities, highlighting the importance of humility and continuous learning.
