Etymology

aphorism + -er

Noun

aphorismer (plural aphorismers)

  1. (nonce word, derogatory) A dealer in aphorisms.
    • 1641, John Milton, Of Reformation of Church-Discipline in England.
      And for the discipline propounded, seeing that it hath been inevitably proved, that the natural and fundamental causes of political happiness in all governments are the same, and that this church-discipline is taught in the word of God, and, as we see, agrees according to wish with all such states as have received it ; we may infallibly assure ourselves that it will as well agree with monarchy, though all the tribe of Aphorismers and Politicasters would persuade us there be secret and mysterious reasons against it.
