The beginner, the fool, is continually required to be patient and tolerant — with himself and equally, with others. His display of ignorance, inexperience and lack of skill may still be rightly attributed to irresponsibility and is often condemned, justly, by others. But the insufficiency of the fool is often better regarded as an inevitable consequence of each individual’s essential vulnerability, rather than as a moral failing. Much that is great starts small ignorant and useless -
