This review is from: The Quotable Spirit: A Treasury of Religious and Spiritual Quotations, from Ancient Times for the 20th Century (Hardcover)
I suppose this is an o.k. book for anyone wanting a general encyclopedia-type reference book of quotes from the world's most "popular" spiritual writers. There is nothing overtly bad about it, and the hard cover looks nice. The index of the writers that the quotes were taken from also contains a brief description of who they were, which was perhaps the most interesting and useful parts of the book. Many of the quotes the editors chose to include were in my opinion, not really worth the paper, but I guess they wanted to put together a thick book. There is a bit of 'wisdom' contained in the book, but if you took all the good quotes, the book could have been half the size. Overall, a good reference book for popular (yet often redundant) spiritual sayings. Better off to read entire works to gain any real insight though; like the Dhammapada, Tao Te Ching, or if you're feeling extra ambitious, try War And Peace.
