Ashleigh Brilliant

Are you familiar with the work of Ashleigh Brilliant? I've liked it for many years. The "Brilliant thought" above is from this book. It's one of my favorites. His web site is here.

He originally published these brief pieces (also called Pot Shots) as postcards. None is longer than 17 words (an arbitrary decision, but I think it turned out quite well). He has dubbed himself "history's only full-time, professional, published epigrammatist."
