April Fool’s Day is celebrated on the 1st of April every year and is a day filled with harmless pranks and good-natured humor.

If no prank can work on you and all the pranks you play worked on others with perfection then it means that you are the wisest of the fools…. Happy Fools’ Day my foolish friend.”

    Other messages and quotes remind us to not take ourselves too seriously, such as “There is nothing bad in being foolish sometimes as we cannot always be intelligent. Happy April Fool’s Day to you” and “Let us celebrate being foolish as this is a fun thing to do.”
