4.0 out of 5 stars A book of quotations by largely assimilated Jews , September 1, 2006

By	Shalom Freedman "Shalom Freedman" (Jerusalem,Israel) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Memorable Quotations: Jewish Writers of the Past (Paperback)

I love books of quotations, and especially books of Jewish quotations. This one has many fine and interesting things in it, but I wish it had more Jewish religious content. Most of those cited here are assimilated Jews without deep knowledge of the Jewish religious tradition.
