You know it: someone wants to say something, but once said, it takes a whole different meaning. Like this church bulletin during the minister's illness: "God is good. Dr. Hargreaves is better." Or this ad on a billboard: "Tired of the same old diet plans that don't work? Try this one!" Or this doctor's comment on a patient chart: "The patient has been depressed ever since she began seeing me in 1993." Funny Quotes is an extensive collection of the best of unintentional humor. It features quotes from resumes and cover letters ("My experience in horticulture is well-rooted."), employee efficiency reports ("This employee should go far - and the sooner he starts, the better we'll be."), insurance claims ("I saw a slow moving, sad faced old gentleman as he bounced off the roof of my car."). Other quotes come from courts, restaurants, newspapers, tourists, kids, school absence excuses, etc., you name it... The bonus section has some of the best verbal blunders from famous people like George W. Bush (bushisms), Samuel Goldwyn or Murray Walker.
