Quotations to Cheer You Up When the World Is Getting You Down

Not simply a writer's and speaker's resource, not simply a reader's compendium of favorite quotations, but the first-ever desk reference to offer literally hundreds of quotations with a positive perspective! Wise, witty, pithy - and stylish - the 750-plus quotations by famous and infamous people cover the finest pearls ever uttered about happiness and other cheerful thoughts. You may choose to use this book in several ways: You could sit and read a section from start to finish as you would an ordinary book. Many quotes may tickle you because of the humor self-contained, or because they echo, contradict, or confirm other thoughts nearby. Thumb through or open the book randomly, and read the first quote that pops up. It may be just what you need to hear at that moment. Find a quote that you are especially drawn to and savor it for an hour, a day, or a week. Allow it to provide affirmation and to help uplift some part of your life. Also, use this book as you would any reference work. It can serve as a wonderful resource for writers, speakers, editors, clergy, teachers, salespeople, business people, parents, and others who rely on the power of the written or spoken word.
