  1. "All that glitters is not gold" is an #aphorism stating that not everything that looks precious or true turns out to be so. While early expressions of the idea are known from at least the 12th–13th century, the current saying is derived from a 16th-century line by #WilliamShakespeare, "All that #glisters is not gold" and, firstly, from the proverbs written by #JohnFlorio on his #SecondFruits (1591).

  10. Seems like a good day to make a quiche.

    Got lots of eggs just now and it seems like a good idea to crack while the eggs are plentiful. Is that an aphorism/adage? Maybe not.

  12. A quotation from Ambrose Bierce

    ADAGE, n. A hoary-headed platitude that is kicked along the centuries until nothing is left of it but its clothes. A “saw” which has worn out its teeth on the human understanding.

    Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914?) American writer and journalist
    “Adage,” “Devil’s Dictionary” column, San Francisco Wasp (1881-03-05)

  21. A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

    There is a strong feeling in favour of cowardly and prudential proverbs. The sentiments of a man while he is full of ardour and hope are to be received, it is supposed, with some qualification. But when the same person has ignominiously failed and begins to eat up his words, he should be listened to like an oracle. Most of our pocket wisdom is conceived for the use of mediocre people, to discourage them from ambitious attempts, and generally console them in their mediocrity. And since mediocre people constitute the bulk of humanity, this is no doubt very properly so. But it does not follow that the one sort of proposition is any less true than the other, or that Icarus is not to be more praised, and perhaps more envied, than Mr. Samuel Budgett the Successful Merchant.

    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
    Essay (1878-03), “Crabbed Age and Youth,” Cornhill Magazine, Vol. 38

  25. I doubt my own doubt—
    and that makes me sound sure.
    Confidence,

    It’s fucking mine, bitches.

  26. "Without boundaries, you may feel overwhelmed, stressed, or taken advantage of, leading to burnout or resentment."

    "Setting boundaries is not selfish—it’s necessary for your well-being."

  34. A quotation from Bill Watterson

    CALVIN: Well, Hobbes, I guess there’s a moral to all this.
    HOBBES: What’s that?
    CALVIN: “Snow goons are bad news.”
    HOBBES: That lesson certainly ought to be inapplicable elsewhere.
    CALVIN: I like maxims that don’t encourage behavior modification.

    Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
    Calvin and Hobbes (1991-01-19)

    Found beside a fishing pond (my translation from Polish):

    """
    Give a man a fish, and he won't be hungry for a day.
    Teach a man to fish, and he'll spend whole days sitting in a boat and drinking beer.
