Wit and wisdom of a wandering mind in old maxims
A collection of aphorisms and quips on life morality and human folly. Reflections on age, happiness, temper, wealth, and the quirks of human character weave through sayings attributed to poets and common sense. The tone resembles a late 19th or early 20th century miscellany of pithy lines.
