Aphorisms

   

http://www.npowerin.org/NPowerTools/aphorism.jpg Aphorism is literally a definition and a term used to describe a principle expressed tersely in a few telling words or any general truth conveyed in a short and pithy sentence, in such a way that when once heard it is unlikely to pass from the memory.

Usually an aphorism is a very concise statement of a phenomenology. (freely from Wikipedia)

Therewith aphorisms seem to differ from Go-proverbs, as these want to teach better Go by heuristics. Hence I introduced this new lemma here.


Good judgement often comes from bad experience,
and a lot of that comes from bad judgement. (tderz)
