Quote by Edgar Allan Poe

I have great faith in fools; My friends call it self-confidence.

I have great faith in fools; My friends call it self-confide

Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker places immense trust and belief in seemingly foolish individuals. Rather than seeing their actions as misguided or unintelligent, the speaker attributes their behavior to a sense of self-assuredness or confidence. The choice of words, referring to fools as "friends," implies a positive perception of their unconventional behavior, highlighting a willingness to admire and support those who may appear foolish to others. This quote could serve as a reminder to embrace and appreciate different perspectives, valuing the boldness and unorthodox approaches that often accompany self-confidence.
