Outstanding
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book is an outstanding collection of thoughts, sayings, and quotations. The collection is very well organized as well as pertinent to life today. This book as a whole is one of the best collection of Quotes i have ever seen. Even though it lacks large numbers of quotes like other books the content is far above the rest!
A continual source of amusement and laughter

I've read and reread this book of quotations by mostly modern wits. It's like hearing the best lines from stand-up comics. I read it aloud to my wife and we both laugh. Lots of irreverent and screwball takes on nearly any subject you can think of. The book makes a great gift.
A brilliant collection of side-splitting gems.

Robert Byrne's collection of the "Best Things Anybody Ever Said" does not disappoint. It is a brilliant mix of politics, social commentary, absurd metaphor and timeless truisms that delight, enlighten and keep the reader laughing out loud. This three-part volume of one-liners, crammed with wisdom of the ages, will never collect dust. It's likely to move from room to room, never finding its way to the book shelf. "Best Things" should be required reading for all students of comedy and other members of the human race. Indexed by author, subject and key words, it is both an indispensable reference for all occasions and a wonderful escape for anyone who enjoys laughing again, again and again.
