Aphorism is a statement of truth or opinion expressed in a concise and witty manner. The term is often applied to philosophical, moral and literary principles.

Let us look at some aphorism examples:

<span>Youth is a blunder; Manhood a struggle; Old age regret. [Benjamin Disraeli]</span>

<span><span>Pride hath fall. [Proverb]</span></span>

<span><span />The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. [William Faulkner]</span>

<span><span>Life’s Tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late. [Benjamin Franklin]</span></span>

<span><span />Yesterday is but today’s memory, and tomorrow is today’s dream. [Khalil Gibran]</span>

<span>The simplest questions are the hardest to answer. [Northrop Frye]</span>

<span><span>A proverb is no proverb to you till life has illustrated it.  [John Keats]</span></span>

<span><span /><span>Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind. [Rudyard Kipling]
</span></span>

NeX [460]

I believe cochlear implants since deaf people often read lips and watch hands which is both sign language and visual communication

whilst cochlear implants not everyone will have them and they wont be bothered by it so thats why i'm saying Cochlear implants
