The Parade of Folly is a collection of satires and epistles, both ancient and modern, that reflects on the role of folly in our lives and the great amusement it provides. ‘Folly’s appearance is independent of era or locality; it is timeless and universal, and is inherent in all individuals; as such, governments merely reflect those they serve.’ ‘Wooden headedness is the refusal to benefit from experience, and it plays a huge role in government and human affairs.’ ‘In analyzing history, one should not expect to see profound actions, for often the causes are quite superficial.’‘ The trappings and bluster of power deceive us all, creating an illusion and mystery larger than life.’
