Against stupidity...

"Asimov's favorite novel was The Gods Themselves, largely because of the middle section, which was both absolutely brilliant and included non-humans and sex. (Asimov had often been accused of being unable to write stories with non-humans or sex and therefore leaving them out of his work.)"
"Mit der Dummheit kaempfen die Goetter selbst vergebens"
Friedrich von Schiller's play Jungfrau von Orleans
"Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain"
