42 Maxims

Rules for life humanity keeps rediscovering, all sourced

42 Maxims ranks life advice by how many independent traditions arrived at it, from the Bible and the Buddha to the Stoics, Confucius, Yoruba proverbs and the Tirukkural. Every quote is linked to a real source and labelled verified, probable or disputed. Open data, free, no sign-up.

Top comment

Hi Product Hunt! I wanted a trustworthy answer to "what advice do all the world's wisdom traditions agree on?" The internet is full of fake quotes, so every quote here links to where you can read the original wording, and fakes are flagged.

> Ideas rank higher when traditions that didn't borrow from each other say the same thing. That's why "Forgive, and keep forgiving" and "Tell the truth" sit near the top. You can browse by theme (anger, speech, work, worry and calm) or by tradition.

> The data is open, and contributions of sourced quotes are welcome, especially from traditions that are still thin. Feedback very welcome!
