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>

Cite the quotation that best supports Buck observation that the other dogs actually enjoy the harness
rusak2 [61]

The value of effort is a recurring subject in this passage. The sample demonstrates how the dogs recognize when they must work and are ready to work as soon as they put on the harness. According to the extract, the dogs' attitudes alter entirely when they wear the harness; this shift in behavior demonstrates how much the dogs enjoy their work and that they would continue it for as long as they could.
