A Unique and Amusing Collection of Quotations
This book doesn't try to be like one of the world renowned books of quotations. it's just a collection of fun, wise and interesting quotations by strong women from all walks of life. That's the virtual of this book in this age of online quotation websites and other collections of quotations. I've had my copy for years. Mines full of post-it notes and always a delight...

It's filler, and bad filler at that.Also, the so-called "Index" is actually only an index of authors - useless for finding a quote by a topic or keyword. I've seen most of these quotes elsewhere in more accessible form - in fact, probably a good 75% are on my "born-today" website. Save your money and get a good book instead.
