An aphorism is nothing else but the slightest
QUOTES AND APHORISMS ON BANALITY
Men are seldom more commonplace than on supreme occasions.
Samuel Butler (1612-1680, British poet, satirist)
A mental disease has swept the planet: banalization presented with the alternative of love or a garbage disposal unit, young people of all countries have chosen the garbage disposal unit.
Ivan Chtcheglov
Banality is a symptom of non-communication. Men hide behind their cliches.
Eugene Ionesco (1912-1994, Romanian-born French playwright)
Banality is a terribly likely consequence of the underused of a good mind. That is why in particular it is a female affliction.
Cynthia Propper-Seton
When the shriveled skin of the ordinary is stuffed out with meaning, it satisfies the senses amazingly.
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941, British novelist, essayist)
