5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational
I love this book! Daily I read just a few pages to inspire me and sets my mood for the day to do things more wisely. One sentence quotes from Proverbs, to saying heard you heard growing up. This is a fun book to keep in your car to read in traffic or in a bathroom setting. A great gift for those that might be feeling down.

2.0 out of 5 stars Wisdom? Hardly.
Trite and disappointing. Reads like a box of fortune cookies. Small thoughts masquerading as deep thoughts. The blurbs are so similar that it's nearly impossible to tell one page from the next.

3.0 out of 5 stars No organization to the book, June 14, 2010
This review is from: 8,789 Words of Wisdom (Paperback)
Lots of interesting and thoughtful sayings but there is no organization to the book. If you are looking for a saying to use, it is very hard to fine one about a particular topic.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book should be Audio!!, April 14, 2002

This review is from: 8,789 Words of Wisdom (Paperback)
It's a great book to pick up and scan through. I think it would be even better if the book was on a disk I could put in my Car CD player. With maybe some meditative music in the background I could just let the words of wisdon sink in on my way home from work. Could someone let me know if that is already a work in process?

I love this collection. I'm always looking for interesting 'word books'... quotes, one-liners, puns, etc. This is one of my favorites. Nothing profound, just great common sense. Barbara Ann Kipfer has put together another great book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love her books., January 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 8,789 Words of Wisdom (Paperback)
I really enjoy her books and how they are not too serious and not too New-Age-y, either. Just right for a little pick me up in your day and small enough to carry around.

This review is from: 8,789 Words of Wisdom (Paperback)
Great book. There is something for everybody, and Barbara is correct when she says turn to any page and find the secrets of life.. For $8.95, it's worth a whole lot more. Beautifully done!

5.0 out of 5 stars What wisdom - what entertainment., January 26, 2008
By 
This review is from: 8,789 Words of Wisdom (Paperback)
An invaluable book... delve in anywhere; and if one quote doesn't "speak to your condition", you're bound to find a dozen others that do. It's witty; inspirational; kind; meditative - and I've bought so many copies as gifts that I reckon I'll soon be 'on commission' for sales! (That's a jest). It's my travelling companion on whatever part of the globe I may be.
