AVANTI DILETTANTI
»There have to be some idiots, but there are always more!«
(Gustl Bayrhammer in “Meister Eder & sein Pumuckl”)

You meet them everywhere: the idiots who drive you to despair and silent fury.

There are the slow-witted ones on hotlines, the snappy ones in doctors’ offices, the blockheads in offices and, last but not least, politicians who spout (and do) so much absurd nonsense that you have to stop shaking your head to avoid damaging your brain. Unqualified information, mental immaturity, bad-tempered contemporaries, stupid nerve- and time-wasters, ignorant, arrogant, smug people… “The main cause of stress is dealing with idiots on a daily basis,” said Albert Einstein. And stress has become a widespread disease these days... But there really are other ways to do it, aren't there?!

Definitely. But for that to happen, you have to open your eyes. Your own and your own. And when you see the stupid dilettante in yourself in the mirror, the time for real greatness comes with the realization: "I know that I know nothing."

But one thing is certain: AVANTI DILETTANTI!
