What are the letters?
Think of someone who died this month, and add his name to the omitted letters

thank-you turnerjmw, I can now see the two names diagonally in grid, don't get the connection though

and thanks baibee for asking was just going to post letters.
The whole should read as an aphorism with the first word of the name, placed after the omitted letters, split into two three letter words. So the word lengths of the aphorism should be 3,2,3,5,2,5,3,3,6, and the meaning is that the divine is not disposed to foolishness, and the mortal not to good judgement.

Thanks, I understand how to read it now, but don't get the connection with who coined the aphorism recently, thanks again
I'm not sure who coined it either. I can't find it anywhere, so I concluded it may have been the setter. Anyway, I took the view it doesn't matter, and that's all there was to the puzzle. I may be wrong. Good luck
blimey.
"Don't laugh at me 'cause I'm a fool" might link to the aphorism.
....in addition the aphorism forms a kind of crypic clue to the hidden name.

nope still don't get it, never mind back to the listener to try and understand final bit on that one
