Why Single Sentence Wisdom?

Researchers tell us that 80% of all books purchased are never read. We either don't have the time, the interest, or the perspicacity, to finish tomes of 200 pages or more.

Enter Single Sentence Wisdom, where in just a few words you can get a tangy morsel of meaning that you can consider, contemplate, and chew on all day.

"Wisdom is ruthless business," said Tibetan lama Chogyam Trungpa. Ruthless, maybe, but it doesn't have to be complex, or boring. In fact, one of the hallmarks of wisdom is simplicity.

So, think of Single Sentence Wisdom as your wisdom ATM. Always available, always open for withdrawals. And if you'd like to make a deposit or two, send your single sentence suggestions to SingleSentenceWisdom@gmail.com
