Useful AND Entertaining!

I've used this book for over 20 years and still find new quotes I haven't seen before. I'm ALWAYS amused by what I find. I use the book regularly in business and in writing. You can look up quotes by author or subject, making its utility valuable. VERY enjoyable and usefull too! Since I've worn mine out, I'm ordering another copy.
