The aphorism: a platitude that swerves, or slides all the way around  (Platitude Quotes) Nothing is more tedious than the dreaming platitude  (Platitude Quotes) A brilliant epigram is a solemn platitude gone to a masquerade ball  (Platitude Quotes) A platitude is simply a truth repeated till people get tired of hearing it  (Platitude Quotes) Platitude: a statement that denies by implication what it explicitly affirms  (Platitude Quotes) If he dropped a pun or a platitude into the conversation, it was just as if he had dropped a plate - there would be a moment of frozen silence, then the talk would go on as before  (Platitude Quotes) Sentimental assertions are always a form of detachment; they confront the acute, terrible awareness of individual pain, the sharp particularity of loss or the fierce individuality of passion with the dulling universal certainty of platitude  (Platitude Quotes) It’s common platitude that knowledge is neutral but every now and then it would be useful if it was on your side and not theirs  (Platitude Quotes) Truth is rhythmical: if it implies stasis, it is platitude. Truth is syncopated: if it supplies all the terms, there is one term too many. Truth is barbed: if it comforts, it lies. Truth is an armed dancer  (Platitude Quotes) It is strange how long we rebel against a platitude until suddenly in a different lingo it looms up again as the only verity  (Platitude Quotes) One likes to think there’s something in it, that old platitude amor vincit omnia. But if I’ve learned one thing in my short sad life, it is that that particular platitude is a lie. Love doesn’t conquer everything. And whoever thinks it does is a fool  (Platitude Quotes) It is strange how we rebel against a platitude until suddenly in a different lingo it looms up again as the only verity  (Platitude Quotes) Funny how people despise platitudes, when they are usually the truest thing going. A thing has to be pretty true before it gets to be a platitude  (Platitude Quotes) Platitude: an idea (a) that is admitted to be true by everyone, and (b) that is not true  (Platitude Quotes) A life-threatening illness or two certainly gives you an awareness of your own mortality. It heightens your sense of gratitude for things that previously, if you’ve not taken them for granted, you perhaps never appreciated how precious they were. That’s almost a platitude, but one has to state the obvious.  (Platitude Quotes) It’s common platitude that knowledge is neutral but every now and then it would be useful if it was on your side and not theirs.  (Platitude Quotes)
