Editorial Reviews

From the Author

The quotations in this book are sometimes wise, sometimes witty. But they are always helpful.

When they are wise, they can lend a hand in helping you overcome tough times. And when they are witty, they will give you a different point of view of your solemn situation— and nothing, perhaps, gives a better perspective than a good laugh.

In either case, pick this book up when you, or someone you know, needs a lift.

By A Customer

This review is from: Up Words for Down Days (Hardcover)

A well organized collection of uplifting quotes for those days when we all can use some thought or change of perspective to lift our spirits. You can go through the table of contents to find quotes for your particular troubles, or just open to any page and get either a laugh or just some relief. And its appropriate not only for you, but your mother as well!
