 Outstanding Pick! May 7, 2007
CB (Aurora, Colorado)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
While this book is small, it has fantastic quotes written by inspiring people. It's very quick to reference and has a short bio of each contributor. Instead of offering a ton of mediocure quotes to fit every plausible situation, it offers only the most poignant. Sometimes less is more...
 Standard quotes... January 23, 2004

This is an "impulse buy" type of book, or a gift for a niece or nephew you do not know too well. The 400 quotes were OK, as others have noted. Too bad Anderson included Douglas MacArthur, but good for her for including Mother Teresa, who gave me a favorite: "I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world."The quotes were not dated, however, so you have no idea when in their lives these people gave them.
Not enough background August 6, 2002

This is just a list of good quotes. The author should have offered a little background behind each quote, such as when, where, circumstances, speaking to whom, after effect. The book is so small I lost it, but I am not too upset.
Greatly Watered-down Quotations January 20, 2000

This book doesn't cost very much, but it doesn't provide a lot either. With only about 400 quotes in very large type, this feels like a supermarket checkout filler item. The reason I give this one 3 stars is due to the fact that most of the quotes are pretty good. So, it's the best of the 'Great Quote Series' but that's not saying much. Save your money and invest in the Random House Websters Quotationary instead.

My Great Daughter bought me the Gold Edge hardcopy of this Book in 1994. It was one of the greatest Christmas presents I have ever received. We can learn alot from these great leaders. Peggy has compiled a Great diversity in Great Leaders. A mentor for everyone.
