Customer Rating:

Summary: Wisdom of the Ages
Comment: This is not only an excellent book, but an excellent tool as well. It will arm you with two line
pieces of wisdom for your own use or to share with others. I've used some of the quotes in business
meetings, out with friends, etc. Everyone should have this one.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Tripe
Comment: Perhaps, if one is going to say that he's collected the "most brilliant thoughts of all time," he
should review his grammar and note the difference between "two lines or less," and "two lines or
fewer."

Customer Rating:

Summary: Shameless Pandering to Stupid People in Search of Putdowns
Comment: Save your money and hang onto your old Bartlett's Quotations. This pathetically mass marketed
compilation is aimed squarely at dim bulbs whose idea of a good day is having been blessed with one
timely scalding rejoinder. As if the Salieri of "Amadeus" could tap into Mozart's muse by reading a
book. Brilliance out of context equals drivel. What a simple minded, mean spirited bore!

Customer Rating:

Summary: For the man who has everything!
Comment: This is an excellent book for those men who have everything. If you aren't sure if they read or
not, this is perfect. It is a great gift for someone you know really well, or for someone you
hardly know at all.

Customer Rating:

Summary: Ignore the overstated title and find a few gems
Comment: The overstated title sets aphorism afficionados up for disappointment. If the author had simply
titled this collection "Personal Favorites," the reader might then have found more than he/she had
expected. Shanahan may have made and earned his great success, but what can he have been thinking
when he included his own personal sayings among "the most brilliant thoughts of all time"? To
borrow from a friend, "one wishes someone else had said it."
