The lines we all wish we could have said are arranged thematically and cover all aspects of life, from the world we inhabit to the things we eat, drink, and smoke - oh, and the pointlessness of football. The quotations within each theme are placed chronologically to illustrate the evolution of ideas and jokes over the years, and to reveal who "borrowed" from whom.
Funny You Should Say That also includes a biography of each author, contextual notes for each quotation, and an index of keywords to help locate the perfect witticism. But do not be over-hasty when you read this book; it is a browser's delight, and should be enjoyed at leisure.
