Quick review for a very quick read. I ended up reading this in the span of about two full hours, and only because I wanted to take my time going through each of the quotations, picking and choosing some of my favorites among the bunch. I was browsing around Barnes and Noble and saw this book on sale (for $7, I thought it was a great deal). It's a long shaped, rather thick hardback book comprised of numerous inspirational quotations from a lot of different writers, artists, historians, political and famous figures. It's separated into five sections: Celebrating You, Positive Change, Life's Simple Pleasures, The Great and the Good, Silver Linings, and The Power of Laughter, each section color coded and filled with little etchings, designs, and otherwise colorful prints to put you in a good mood alongside the quotes. I love the quality of the paper it's printed on as well. I'm definitely keeping this in my library for a long time to come, and referring to it when I need a bit of a pick-me-up.

Overall score: 5/5 stars.

The perfect bathroom book. I mean that in a good way.

I've always loved "quotes" and this is one of those book of quotes that you can pick up and open to a page and you'll find something wonderful that will give you pause to reflect. You can also pick up the book and read a section and be raised up and find you feel better, more positive and hopeful. It's a wonderful book and everyone's bedside should have a copy!

The first “quotes” book I’ve read - very refreshing.
