Last Aphorisms

By jpj

From the first pages: Giving truth is not generous. One truth given means many falsehoods stolen.A million things would we love, could we tolerate love itself.Escaping the earth involves digging, not flying.God is found at the beginning of time, and the end of arguments.To proclaim is loud and easy. To believe is quiet and difficult.We observe the world, not as if it mattered, but as if our eyes mattered.A father runs out of stories when his child runs out of faith.We can be backwards in any direction.A hundred days of comedy, then one of tragedy, make a hundred and one of tragedy.The person who advocates realism has a blueprint for it.The cautious revolutionary: Condemn everything, question nothing.Rational people know what to expect. Irrational people know what to demand.
