Aphorisms by Leonid Sukhorukov
* An aphorism is a one-line novel.(quoted in an article"Aphorism 2006" by John Leo, editor of "US News and World Report")
* Wisdom is the meeting point of doubt and certainty.
* Never consider yourself too big - it's a small world.
* Some marriages give bachelors a master's degree.
* The yardstick of generosity is not how much you give others, but how much you want in return.
* Every sabre has a curving smile.
* Peace is always lost in someone's pockets.
* The golden age of silver hair.
* The future tricks us with false hopes, the past with false memories.
* A liar is one who is too good to be true.
* Truth is straight. Life curves.
* Some seek truth in churches but crucify it outside.
* When politicians clarify, truth is the first casualty.
* Poverty has nothing to lose and lots to find.
* In the brains of pigmies giants dwell.
* First Law of Philosophy: The deeper we think, the deeper we sink.
* Life is not a laughing matter, but can you imagine having to live without laughing.
* Brevity may be the soul of wit, but it can also be a mercy.
