An aphorism and a maxim (cf. La Rochefoucould) aren't exactly the same thing, although there are sometimes intersections.
Let's post some of our favorite aphorisms here, in brief. One aphorism to a post.
My first contribution is from an odd-but-entertaining, and not very widely known writer, the author of the notorious Kai Lung books.
One of my favorites, that one. Bramah made a number of good ones, but I've set the rule of one-per-posting.
