How do aphorisms differ from adages and proverbs.
https://strekatilo294.com
Aphorisms often use metaphors or creative imagery to express ideas.
You get up and keep trying.
The idea is simple.
This also reminds me of a precept by Sir Edwin Sandys, a politician who helped establish Jamestown, Virginia.
People often use this quote when discussing health, but Franklin was talking about fire safety.
Aphorisms state universal truths about life that encourage reflection.
Pick an aphorism that relates to your message and use it to stay focused on your overarching theme.
Don’t judge a book by its cover.
Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.
You get up and keep trying.
If you can do something, then you need to do it for the good of others.

Other Common Examples of Aphorisms
The original saying was, Eat an apple on going to bed, and you’ll keep the doctor from earning his bread.
