Smart people are always trying to take over the world. So what does this means?
It means its better to be one of the stupid people.
But why?
I know you are thinking somewhere along the lines that it is easier to be stupid people; to not go after things that are as impossible as taking over the world. But sadly, you are wrong. (Admit it, you were thinking I will be saying that.)
But no, thats not the reason.
Think about it: if smart people are always trying to take over the world, who are they trying to supplant? The stupid people of course. Stupid people own the world.
So therefore thus ergo, it is better to be stupid; we own the world man.
For believe me! — the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves! Be robbers and conquerors as long as you cannot be rulers and possessors, you seekers of knowledge! — Nietzsche, The Gay Science
