Publisher's Synopsis
"There are two great days in a person's life-the day we are born and the day we discover why."Perhaps we all feel, at one time or another, that we've never quite made it to that second great day. But we all want to! It's moments like that which teach us the true value of wisdom. Not just knowledge, not just a wonderful memory and a mastery of facts, but the wisdom that makes sense out of the world and our place in it. The wisdom that knows what to choose, how to respond, and what to believe.If that kind of wisdom is what you need in your life, here's your chance! With gems of insight on topics like family, leadership, health, endurance, mindset, relationships, and life in general, there is something for everyone in 1,000 Favorite Quotes. These are understandings to ponder, not to race over with a nod or a chuckle. Even the thoughts that may be familiar deserve to be thought through again, and some of the more humorous ones deal with issues that can carry a deadly punch. Fortunately, there truly can be "much wisdom in short sayings."This is a book to buy for yourself, but the desire will be strong to loan it to those who need it (and some people are in absolutely desperate need of wisdom). That may be a good thing, but caution is advised: you may never get it back!
