Interlude: An Aphorism 8

"The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom."
-William Blake (1757-1827)

This aphorism and many other fine examples of the style may be found in The World in a Phrase - A Brief History of the Aphorism by James Geary.

    Wisdom, as the inclusion of opposities, is usually also the palace of mediocrity.

    My dad has been writing a book precisely on point with this blog, I have emailed him the web address so perhaps he could pick up a couple pointers. Fantastic Job.
