An adage that describes a general rule of conduct is a "maxim". A pithy expression that has not necessarily gained credit through long use, but is distinguished by particular depth or good style is an aphorism, while one distinguished by wit or irony is an epigram.

In truth, we don't use the term "aphorism" as often as "proverb" or "adage," but it's certainly a member of the same family tree. An aphorism is a short phrase that expresses an opinion or makes a statement of wisdom. It, too, focuses on moral instruction and can be quite witty. Aphorisms tend to be more direct than proverbs and adages.

Modifying a familiar adage, can we say that some buildings are born to be landmarks, others achieve this status and still others have it thrust upon them?
