ResumoIn old times, when kings occasionally wanted to know the real opinion of their people, they asked their fool, and it has become a proverb that “fools tell the truth while laughing.” But the court jester is not always an agreeable man, and it is also said that before he teaches you the maxim he “will annoy and pester.” Thus we may suppose that these were of different kinds.
