Talk:great minds think alike

In Britain, this is often followed by "Fools seldom differ." SemperBlotto 21:09, 17 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Here in the US, I don't think I've ever heard that before. (Cute, BTW.)  Should that be listed as a UK-only idiom separately?  Or is it not limited to UK?  (If not, doesn't it still merit its own entry, plus a ===See also=== from here?)  --Connel MacKenzie 21:51, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Over in Wikiquote there is an entry for the whole thing in English proverbs, but it doesn't say anything about it. I would add a little note here. SemperBlotto 21:58, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

I always thought the original quote was "Great minds rarely think alike, fools seldom differ" but I don't know where it comes from. In my opinion it makes much more sense that way as great minds think in unique ways rather than follow the herd.

and fools rarely differ
Shoudn't and fools rarely differ redirect here too then? --Backinstadiums (talk) 19:22, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
