trite phrase

We’ve all heard the trite phrase, “Money can’t buy happiness,” but it can certainly help facilitate it.

The old trite phrase “with full panoply of glory” may well be applied to the way in which Cecil B. DeMille brings the circus to the screen in “The Greatest Show on Earth,” a picture to be reckoned as one of the greatest of this master showman’s shows.

It’s a trite phrase, empty of substance, limited in its appeal.

But they altered how we have come to understand the trite phrase “mental toughness.”

The trite phrase about dropping a dime and making a call from a pay phone should apply to cellphone access, too.
