From the Inside Flap:
With so many decisions to make in the areas of love and relationships, education and professional endeavors, success and personal happiness, it's no wonder that most of us seek good advice from the fount of collective human wisdom at one time or another. Here in one helpful compendium is the best advice ever recorded: a collection of personal tips, traditional proverbs, and clever observations―some gently inspiring and some profoundly life-changing―from the sages of the literary, political, spiritual, and psychological realms including:
"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough."--Oprah Winfrey "When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen."--Ernest Hemingway "The secret of business is to know something nobody else knows."--Aristotle Onassis "For marriage to be a success, every woman and every man should have her and his own bathroom. The end."--Catherine Zeta-Jones "Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names."--John F. Kennedy "In the fight between you and the world, back the world."--Franz Kafka
