Fools rush in where angels fear to tread

The proverb “Fools rush in where angels fear to tread” points to the queerness that characterizes the ways of the world. Fools are those that have no sense of proportion, no knowledge of their limitations or shortcomings.

An illiterate may be intelligent and hence not necessarily a fool. On the other hand, a literate person may lack in common sense and prove him to be a fool.

The fools do not understand the risks or hazards or implications of any work and hence they rush in doing that job without caring to look before and after and so in the long run come to repent for their action. They vainly boast of their merit and learning.

The wise and intelligent people, who may be termed as angels compared to these fools, will consider all aspects including their capability before undertaking any such work. These intelligent people are obviously superior to the humbug and boastful fools who becomes the butt of ridicule through their fruitless actions.
