Aphorisms
July 27, 2011
- Time is misunderstood. What we have is an infinite stockpile of Nows.
- Travel is the best education because it is life in fast-forward: the world around us is born, ages, and dies, at 73 mph.
- The body is a solar eclipse.
- Truth is the flashlight I used to stare into, for minutes at a time.
- Love smells like rose gardens, freshly fertilized.
- Anger is a spirit prostitute.
- Words are hammers. Words are hatchets. Words are hands.
- Mercy is a divine irony, and justice a slandered patron god.
- Death is offended by our hasty generalizations.
- We hold strings that hold devils that hold strings that hold us.
- Philosophers have recently proven that one and one equals two. People are celebrating in the streets.
- Pennies are facing an identity crisis.
- Sarcasm means flesh-tearing. Not a joke.
- Sight is perhaps our worst enemy. It lends us enigmatic representations of a world we are not willing to part with it.
- Melancholy is not a humor. It is an ingredient in goulash which spoils easily but adds zest.
- Clouds would like us to stop complaining about them, and to stop checking them out from below.
