 "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and consciencious stupidity."

 George Bernard Shaw                     (or yours or it’s unpatriotic if you don’t)

Bernard Devoto    (let’s hope this is correct)

 "A clever wife often sleeps with a stupid husband."

  "Only in Britain could it be thought a defect to be 'too clever by half.' The probability is that too many people are too stupid by three-quarters."

John Major    (and he got to be Prime Minister in a close vote)

David Cronenberg   (the trouble is it’s not always easy to recognize which ones are really stupid)
