Socrates admonished us to "Know Thyself." Shakespeare proclaimed, "To thine own self be true." But to embody this sage advice, one must first ask and answer certain questions. The over 300 maxims contained herein will help to inspire the right questions to ask...so that you can arrive at the right answers for yourself. These maxims can inspire sermons, provoke philosophical debate, and prompt internal reflection. While they are often wise, witty, and humorous in their own right, the maxims are even more poignant when it is understood that they are the bequeathal of a father to his sons to continue guiding them from beyond the grave - and that this book is the posthumous tribute of a family to the husband and father who penned it. Melvyn Freed tweaked each phrase to tease out the intended tone and message so that the punch line was memorable. Each concerns basic life values that he hoped would help the reader discover their own fundamental moral and spiritual roots. Melvyn Freed could pen this book because his beliefs are expressed in each maxim. May he be remembered in the life of each reader through the successful application of these timeless truths.
