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 "D on'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.
