Comment by Zorica Obradović on August 19, 2026 at 9:26am: Really fascinating!

Comment by Zorica Obradović on August 19, 2026 at 9:24am: Thank you, Fike, thank you.

Yes, it’s an incredible realization. I actually already knew about this. I found out by chance when someone asked me, 'Do you have a bag so I can pick a few wasps?' (meaning the figs from my yard). Later, I tried to share this with other people, but their reaction was always something like, 'Wow, you really have a wild imagination.' I didn't have your wisdom back then to direct them to an encyclopedia... I give up when faced with the attacks of a closed mind because, as they say:Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: "Against stupidity, the gods themselves contend in vain."

Friedrich Nietzsche: In his work Thus Spoke Zarathustra and other writings, he often spoke of "dwarfs" and tedious, persistent spirits who, with their banality, weary and disarm the deep thinker, because a dialogue among equals cannot be held with them.

Arthur Schopenhauer: He spoke of how stupidity rules the world and that arguing with a foolish person means wasting time and energy in vain, because they do not accept arguments but instead invalidate them with their ignorance.
