Opis

Author Ivar Jonsson have created a great collection of some of the most important, famous and historical quotes. Those uttered by the great, as well as by the unknown. Interesting, fascinating and inspiring. Throughout history, great words spoken or written by brilliant minds have been cited and retold uncountable times. These quotes have been used to inspire as well as to amuse, to teach as well as to provoke thoughts. For as long as there have been books, there have also been writers to record these great words. Even in ancient times, people saw fit to make records of the proverbs and sayings that touched their hearts. Still today, there's a great interest in quotes from great thinkers, artists and from the rich and famous; and in the possible applications there might be for them in this modern world. History also has a funny way of putting the words uttered in an interesting perspective. A statement that at it's time seemed unimportant can with time gain huge fame, or infamy, all by the context in which history will place it.
