" Stupidity is something unshakable; nothing attacks it without breaking itself against it; it is of the nature of granite, hard and resistant. "
- Gustave Flaubert
Stupidity is a lack of good sense and judgment. Once a person keeps repeating a mistake without learning from it, that action becomes stupidity.
It's hard to break free from the cycle of foolishness. Once a person starts taking stupid steps and keeps on thinking with that mindset, he can never make a sensible decision. Because that becomes the nature of a person and stupidity is hard and resistant, it can not be attacked unless one does something more stupid than the previous action.
A person must be willing to take steps to change from the inside in order to avoid getting into the cycle of ignorance.
