Snippets of Wisdom

There is truth and wisdom in every one of these proverbs, maxims, axioms... If, at first, you do not understand what is being said, re-read it until you do. If that is not enough, just leave it aside for a while and come back to it later. Sometimes, you only get the meaning after you have been through certain life experiences. Only then, you will understand the beauty and wisdom of these snippets of wisdom.
