Description
Often poetic, occasionally ironic, and frequently humorous, Maxims — first published in 1665 — can also be blunt and brutally candid: "Everyone blames his memory, no one his judgment." Bursting with philosophical musings that make for enlightened reading, this collection features more than 500 thought-provoking revelations.
