About the Book

Creating something complex from simple constituent parts is probably the most impressive thing that we as the human race can do. From strings of zeros and ones, we have created a universe of digital mathematics, one that powers every computer in the world today. From simple words that we speak every day, we have created proverbs, that hold many oceans of profound meaning within their few words.

Within this book, you will meet many proverbs. Some old, some new: all of them will greet you like an old friend, and leave you richer for the experience of having encountered them on this fortunate day!

Time travel has not yet been invented; therefore, it is practically impossible to send ourselves to the past, and speak to the greatest minds who are no longer with us today, and to learn from their wisdom. We do not need to rely on time travel, however: their words have survived, many of them in the form of proverbial sayings.

The modern world is very busy. Long ago, things were different. Wise men and women had the time to think at leisure, and to come up with nuggets of strong information that stood the test of time, and that we still keep in mind today.

The answers to the big questions of life can be found in the pages of history books, in words written by philosophers and sages of the past. This book shows you a wide variety of these clever and succinct sayings, and will provide you with your monthly dose of wisdom.

Tiny modules of genius and deep thought handed down from generation to generation in every country under the sun, proverbs teach us that all human beings, regardless of race or history or geography, have always struggled with the same issues, and have sought for truth through their lives. This book celebrates that wisdom.

Wisdom is handed down from generation to generation across the world. A lot of this wisdom is in oral form, and uses a lot of words. Proverbs are instances of wisdom concentrated into its most powerful form: because it is most impressive when you use very few words to convey a deep and profound meaning. Over time, wise women, mystic shamans, scientists, artists, philosophers, and leaders of people have come up with proverbs that have stood the test of time.

Aphorisms are today created by the bulk aggregating power of social media, and the collaborative web ensures that the power of sharing and creation of text posts leads to viral content and propagates proverbs in the form of memes quicker than ever before in history. We live in exciting times! Knowing a large number of proverbs is useful in many real life situations. For example, if you are giving a speech, sprinkling well chosen proverbs throughout your talk is a good way to appear smart without putting in too much effort on your own.

The same is true of formal writing; it is like borrowing wisdom from a public source. In addition, using and knowing proverbs leads to benefits in your own life: you will see that you become less wordy and more pithy in your thought process and expression. This book provides a large number of puzzles that will guide you towards some of the greatest proverbs, sayings, and short quotes of all time. You will exercise your brain in this quest for wisdom. Have fun!
