Quote Worthy

I am passionate about aphorisms. I started taking an interest in them at an early age. It used to be just proverbs, axioms, and maxims... Later on, I will take note of anything that resonates with me. I am still doing that now.

I firmly believe that there is a lot you can learn from these wise sayings of men who have gone on before us. They are condensed knowledge of Life, and Life experiences, and they serve as a record of lessons on Life.

Take an interest in them. They will help you with the Mastery of Life. We do not have enough time to learn all about Life ourselves. However, if we can learn from the failures and successes of others, we could save ourselves not only time, but also heartaches.

Have a look at today’s selection of Aphorisms.

The less talent they have, the more pride, vanity and arrogance they have, All these fools, however, find other fools who applaud them. - Erasmus

It is wise to remember that the person who follows the crowd will get no further than the crowd. The person who walks the creative path is likely to find they are in places no one has ever been before. - Bob Proctor

More powerful than all the success slogans ever penned by human hand is the realization for every man that he has but one boss. That boss is the man – he – himself. - Gabriel Heatter
