Contrary to what one might believe, wisdom does not necessarily reside with the literate classes only. The catholic hoi polloi of colonial Goa remained the not so literate , more because of the reluctance of the men of God to impart the education of 3 Rs in their parochial schools.
But it so happens , brilliant observations ( not necessarily to the ears of the grandes homens de Deus ) can sprout from the not brilliant minds of common people. One of the sayings that comes to my mind is as follows: '' Padri-cho sermao-uch aicon tum munis zaumcho-na, escola-che bancar-ui bosonc zai''
