 Not that interesting December 5, 2008

There seem to be a few good quotes sprinkled around, but a lot of them are unremarkable, cliche, or hackneyed humor.
 Not funny! February 18, 2008

In my opinion, this book is not funny! That is the main criteria for a "funny saying" from a humorous quote book.
Some "funny sayings" from the book in alphabetical order (being alphabetized I found helpful),
"Jesus Christ- if you [General Bertrand] do not perceive that Jesus Christ is God, very well; then I did wrong to make you a general. Napoleon Bonaparte"
"Jew- I determine who is Jew. Hermann Goering"
On the cover,
"I did not attend this funeral; but I wrote a nice letter saying I approved of it. Mark Twain"
"A candle lights others and consumes itself."
Had I read that this book wasn't funny I might have paused before I bought the book. Maybe I can offer someone else the time to read a bit more about this book, because we all know, "It is not good to wake a sleeping lion" (also from the cover).

While this book does have plenty of quotes and sayings to choose from, the organization doesn't make a lot of sense. When you're quickly looking for a motivational quote, you end up referencing several different sections to find what you're looking for. Don't get me wrong, it's fine and has plenty of content but it's just not intuitive to use.

I picked this book up in a store to browse through while waiting for the wife to finish shopping. Started laughing so hard at some of the entries, I had to wipe the tears away. Other sayings were insightful and wise. Ended up walking out of the store with it.
It's great for the bathroom or bedside. Easy to pick up and put down at any time. The reason I'm here writing this is because I plan on purchasing some copies for relatives as gifts.
