pompous fool. dishonest fool. India’s economy has been described as “precocious” because it fostered democracy and a high-tech service industry at an unusually low level of GDP per person. It also seems to be a precocious poverty-fighter

"Pompous fools drive me up the wall. Ordinary fools are all right; you can talk to them, and try to help them out. But pompous fools -- guys who are fools and are covering it all over and impressing people as to how wonderful they are with all this hocus pocus -- that, I cannot stand! An ordinary fool isn't a faker; an honest fool is all right. But a dishonest fool is terrible!"

"Richard Feynman (born May 11, 1918, New York, New York, U.S.—died February 15, 1988, Los Angeles, California) was an American theoretical physicist who was widely regarded as the most brilliant, influential, and iconoclastic figure in his field in the post-World War II era.

Feynman remade quantum electrodynamics—the theory of the interaction between light and matter—and thus altered the way science understands the nature of waves and particles. He was co-awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1965 for this work, which tied together in an experimentally perfect package all the varied phenomena at work in light, radio, electricity, and magnetism. The other cowinners of the Nobel Prize, Julian S. Schwinger of the United States and Tomonaga Shin’ichirō of Japan, had independently created equivalent theories, but it was Feynman’s that proved the most original and far-reaching. The problem-solving tools that he invented—including pictorial representations of particle interactions known as Feynman diagrams—permeated many areas of theoretical physics in the second half of the 20th century."
