Spring is here, a new month has arrived, and in honor of thinking too hard and diving into introspection I am going to initiate a new tradition: My Favorite Aphorism for the month. These come from "
Aphorism of the Day," run by a curious philosopher and lover of experience who calls himself
Nothing Profound. One eye sees things through Nietzsche, the other sees the world through Whitman, all written in the style of Solomon and the insight of... himself. Marty's an interesting enough guy without all the philosophical trappings.
So, without further ado, here is the aphorism which will be my secular
lectio for the month:
The power to judge becomes a substitute for the power to love.
Personally? I like it. Feel free to discuss among yourselves.
Thanks, Marty!
