Words To Live By

Aphorisms not only teach us lessons, they teach us life-lessons not taught in classrooms. Through them, we learn about Life. And as we learn, our understanding and attitude towards life changes. Hence it is not an exaggeration to say that some quotes are life-changing.

However, to get the maximum benefit from these quotes, one has to understand their meaning literally and metaphorically, and also to be able to infer and draw parallels to situations and circumstances. Sometimes, we have to go through certain life experiences to understand what a particular quote meant.

Study these quotes, understand them and learn from them. It is time well invested.
