Baroque philosopher Balthasar Gracian's The Art of Worldly Wisdom
consists of three hundred maxims spanning a wide range of topics
relating to all aspects of life and human behavior. Gracian was a
Spanish Jesuit Priest whose sermons and writings were disapproved
of by his superiors. Admired by Schopenhauer and Nietzsche for the
depth and subtlety of his observations, Gracian's collection of
pithy insights deserves place alongside similar classic manuals of
self-improvement from antiquity like the Enchiridion of Epictetus
and Seneca's Letters.
