"Aphorismes du temps présent" by Gustave Le Bon is a collection of philosophical reflections written in the early 20th century. This work distills various insights from the author’s previous writings into concise aphorisms, addressing themes of human behavior, psychology, and societal observations. Through this format, Le Bon aims to convey profound truths about the human condition and the collective psyche. At the start of this work, the author introduces the aphoristic style as an effective means to capture and communicate complex ideas briefly. In the opening section, Le Bon emphasizes the reliance of human actions on character rather than intelligence, exploring the multifaceted nature of individuality shaped by ancestral and social influences. He discusses how emotions, sentiments, and subconscious motivations significantly impact behavior, suggesting that understanding one's character is essential for comprehending human actions and societal phenomena. This engaging introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the psychological forces that govern both individual behaviors and collective movements.
