An aphorism is a truism expressed in a concise and witty manner. Aphorisms teach a philosophical or moral truth which is relevant to our experiences in life. The relevance is what makes them fascinating and interesting.

The right aphorism at the right time, at the right place can change a person’s point of view, or in some cases, a person’s life. It is like a key opening the lock to a recess of the mind which we did not know existed. 

Take an interest in aphorisms. Understand what they are saying and learn the underlying lesson/lessons in them.
