There were some real good quotes in this short book but a lot of bad ones too. and not well formatted. ( ) I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I started reading this expecting a bit of substance. This book is about 100 pages. It is a long list of quotes from different people over the years. There are no categories, introductions, or visible order. Though, as a public speaker, some of these quotes could be useful in future presentations. It will take a lot of searching and sifting through because there are no categories, but they can provide some inspiration. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Many wise words are spoken in jest but many more stupid ones are said in earnest, as this book demonstrates. How about this comment on a football match from Cristiano Ronaldo, for instance: 'The reason we lost is because we didn't win.' Or Ian Wright's, 'It took a lot of bottle for Tony Adams to admit he was an alcoholic.' Or Dave Woods' remark, 'The silence is getting louder.' It makes you think, doesn't it? There are many others: 'Abstinence is the thin end of the pledge.' 'A comedian who repeats old gags is a clear case of the tale dogging the wag.' 'It is kisstomary to cuss the bride.' 'Cannabalise legalis.' A cavalcade of equally regrettable utterances form the basis of this melange of spoonerisms and spectacular ignorance. Aubrey Malone has written a bumber of nooks.
