Lacon or Many Things in Few Words: Addressed to Those Who Think is a collection of witty and thought-provoking aphorisms and observations by the English clergyman and writer, C.C. Colton. Originally published in 1820, the book is divided into thematic chapters that cover a wide range of topics, including human nature, society, religion, and morality. Colton's writing style is characterized by his use of concise and pithy statements that are designed to make readers reflect on their own beliefs and values. Some of his most famous aphorisms include Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and The greatest friend of truth is Time, her greatest enemy is Prejudice, and her constant companion is Humility. Lacon has been praised for its wit, wisdom, and insight into the human condition, and remains a popular work of moral philosophy and self-improvement to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
