We all love witty and clever quotations. They are often very funny, and usually sum up a profound truth in a subversive, irreverent manner. Magnus Magnusson's love of quotations has encouraged him to keep a Commonplace Book and this is a sampling of his collection kept over many years and spanning many subjects.
On the basis that 'a big book is a big nuisance' (Callimachis, head librarian at Alexandria 305-240 BC), this little book is always entertaining. Containing the best loved classics and many newly discovered gems, this is a delicious anthology to explore and keep to hand.
