| | Aphorism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Usually an aphorism is a very concise statement of a phenomenology. | | | Many societies have traditional sages or culture heroes to whom aphorisms are commonly attributed, such as the Seven Sages of Greece or King Solomon. | | | The first aphorism, perhaps the best known of all, which serves as a kind of introduction to the book, runs as follows: |

| | Inasmuch as the aphorism shows a preference for a form beyond any challenge, wit shows a preference for a content beyond any challenge. | | | My concern with the performativity of wit, which I describe as theory’s cunning, is an investigation into the seemingly non-performative aspect of the aphorism, which I describe as theory’s mask. | | | Non-performative aphorisms show a preference for a form beyond challenge. |

| | The Craft of Aphorism: |
| | The world of this aphorism is constituted by a death armed against itself; a reconciliation of one conflict leads us straight into the other: one can turn left, or right, but one inevitably comes up against a wall which again must be sliced, which requires a return to the aphorism. | | | The external cut forces us to look between aphorisms for meaning, just as, in montage, meaning is formed between the shots. | | | Schlegel himself claimed that “aphorisms are coherent fragments” (Schlegel in Nancy 43) but the word ‘coherent’ seems inaccurate. |

Lichtenberg. |
