Truisms

Aphorisms teach a philosophical or moral truth which is relevant to our experiences in life. The relevance is what makes them fascinating and interesting. Moreover, they are universal truths. That is why motivational speakers quote aphorisms in their speeches to inspire and motivate their audience.

I recommend that people should take an interest in aphorisms. There is so much to learn from these terse sayings, and astute observations.

Have a look at following aphorisms and see what you think of them.
