Claim: In the play, "All Fools" two seniors who are knights of Florence have very different personalities; one brashly inquisitive and manipulative, and the other a mellower-tempered gentleman.
Evidence: The two seniors are knights of Florence named Gostanzo and Marc Antonio. Gostanzo is a brashly acquisitive and manipulative old man, an "old, politique, dissembling knight" who believes that "Honesty is but a defect of wit." In contrast, Marc Antonio is a mellower-tempered gentleman who follows a course of "simple honesty." All Fools is an early Jacobean era stage play, a comedy by George Chapman that was first published in 1605.
