Happy, he who was able to know the causes of things.

I loved that part of the Georgics. I liked De Rerum Natura even more.

Need some Latin help. A fellow freeper (King Prout) wants this translated for a tagline: "The difference between intelligence and stupidity is that intelligence has limits."

I slapped this together for him, but I know it's insufficent: Varietas inter sententiam et stultum inde stultus est infinitus. Any suggestions?
