“In the Tarot the Fool is the unnumbered card that does not fit into an ordered sequence. He represents the free-spirited side of our nature—the maverick in us who refuses to toe the line and conform to people's expectations.” ~ Annie Lionnet, The Tarot Directory

“The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool..”
~William Shakespeare, As You Like It

Our society has rejected the Fool, not only because he cannot be exploited, not only because they judge everything by its usefulness; but they are frightened and disturbed by the Fool, because he is the child of life, and not of abstract virtue. The Fool is purity of consciousness. This purity is a cosmic folly that is utterly detached from what most of the world thinks worth doing; it is detached from the deadening edifice of clever ambitions, of power, and of the incredible vanity of knowledge, that has already dulled the capacity for the poetry of life in contemporary society.

~ Cecil Collins, The Vision of the Fool
