Description
A compendium of wise one-liners, laugh out loud jokes, and inspirational quotes of truth and beauty, compiled by the creators of QI, with contributions from Stephen Fry and Alan Davies. A really quite interesting book of quotes - one which gathers the truest and funniest insights of the best minds, and organises them into more than 400 subjects, from ambition to worry (or from artichokes to windows) - a book which offers you motivational and inspirational quotes, and a useful take on almost every situation life throws at you. Amongst the famous and talented who provided these inspirational and motivational quotes, are Charles Darwin, Russell Crowe, Michael Caine, Florence Nightingale, Tony Blair, Albert Einstein and Charles Dickens. From the bestselling authors of The General Book of Ignorance and 1,277 QI Facts to Blow Your Socks Off, comes a really quite interesting compendium of jokes, one-liners and amazing famous quotes.
