About this title

Synopsis

What's so great about great quotations? They're nuggets of gold, offering a glimpse into the human experience--and they do it with only a handful of words. With that in mind, the editors at Portable Press, publishers of the wildly popular Uncle John's Bathroom Reader series, did what they do best: They found the deepest, wisest, sharpest, funniest, and most furious thinkers and compiled their observations into tasty, digestible little bundles. Does every quote book have to be as weighty and ponderous as Bartlett's to be relevant? The answer is a resounding NO. On subjects as varied as history, love, sex, boredom, sports, cheese, smoking, politics, juggling, school, and the true meaning of bellybutton lint, Instant Genius: Smart Mouths will make your brain happy to be alive (and thankful that you taught it to read).
