Customer Reviews

Great gift

This is a treasure of sayings to inspire and provoke thought. Good resource for quotes to use in presentations or talks or just to get a little random inspiration for the day. Great gift for graduates or going away parties.

Nice selection of Quotes

This is a small, easily read book of quotes. There were several inspiring quotes and several famous quotes. Sometimes it seemed as though there were repeats of quotes or they were stuck on a theme. I wish the book was longer and referenced more outstanding speakers/thinkers. OVERALL... I am very satisified. I purchased this book as a resource for students it will fit well in the classroom.
