Answer 2

An aphorism is a saying which usually comes from observation of things that in turn give insight on a general truth. The aphorism in Poor Richard's Almanac that best reflects the virtue of justice is "Don't throw stones at your neighbors, if your own windows are glass." It practically means that what goes around also comes back around, so be careful of the things you do which might also bring harm to you in the future.
