Synopsis

Hundreds of laugh-out-loud quotations from witty writers, comics, and more.

Arranged by subject, from Academia to Youth and everything in between, this collection of funny quotes -- some famous and some less well known -- is a treasure-trove of original humor.

Quoted figures include Mark Twain, Dave Barry, Carol Burnett, and Ernest Hemingway, among many others. Examples include:

"I've had a wonderful evening, but this wasn't it."
--Groucho Marx, when leaving a party

"The best fame is a writer's fame. It's enough to get you a table at a good restaurant, but not enough to get you interrupted when you eat."
--Fran Lebowitz

A perfect inexpensive impulse buy or stocking-stuffer!
Hundreds of quotes for half the price of other humorous quote collections.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
