Ashleigh Brilliant (real name) is a 77-year-old author/philosopher/cartoonist from London, UK. He has spent almost 40 years of this life on a project called Pot-Shots. Also known as Brilliant Thoughts, he tries to put down his thoughts in 17 words or less. He hopes that his epigrams will have a profound effect and may “hit you in your heart, brain, or funny bone – or perhaps all three.”

Brilliant doesn’t know how complete is his collection is but he has around 10,000 illustrated epigrams. Read more about the man and his inspiring creations on this official site, at www.ashleighbrilliant.com.
