Hearts anchored in love never drift from safe harbors.
Forbidden pleasure is the most tempting and often the least rewarding.
Our sweetest memories often come with a silent soundtrack playing in the recesses of our minds.
Most people have two versions of their life story: the carefully edited one they share with others and the unfiltered one they revisit in solitude.
One can feel lonely even in the heart of a crowd.
To dampen a compliment for an older man, give the praise—then add, ‘for a man your age.“
In old age, memories of the past bring more joy than dreams of the future.
Life is a game of dodgeball—we duck illness, misfortune, and loss. But sooner or later, we can’t dodge the final throw: death.

Good ones…I collect quotes

I too, am a collector of aphorisms, epigrams and other pithy sayings. I try my hand at writing aphorisms on occasion. I recommend the following books for your consideration: The Oxford Book of Aphorisms by John Gross, The Harper Book of Quotations, Peter’s Quotations by Laurence J Peter, Random House Quotionary, The Bed of Procrustes by Nassim Nicholas Taleb… I always thought that if I could ever write and publish a book that it would be a collection of aphorisms. But I am not creative enough to generate sufficient content for a book. P.S. Thank you for reading!
