1.0 out of 5 stars
With trite and bland quotations, this book is outdated.,
By
This review is from: One Thousand Tips and Quips for Speakers and Toastmasters (Paperback)
Interestingly enough, I got this book as a gift. I don't expect great things from a compilation of quotations - a cull of "Reader's Digest" pabulum, in most cases. This one took the cake for being a compendium of 1940s almanacs and sentiments dear to Phyllis Schlafly. I don't expect every quote book to hold some words from great thinkers from around the world, but this book is one-dimensional in its insular approach. This is the kind of book that shows how multiculturalism is needed. And PS : how come Prochnow quotes himself and other people named Prochnow so much? A throughly avoidable read. |
