Dear Hubby has always said he knew he would marry Mrs. Right. He just did not know her first name would be Always. Yeah, that's me. It is so funny that I can tell him right where any thing is in the house. Missing socks to his toothbrush to that last hidden candy bar. Of course I know where the candy bar is. But it is more that I am detail minded (aka OCD) and know EVERTYTHING! Well not everything....but a heck of a lot of it.

This isn't a sit down and read through book. It's pick it up and read a few every now and then.

I can flip through this book on any occasion to suit my emotions. I love the vast collection of these qupis and quotes. I did not, however, like that many of the quotes contradicted each other. That was abit inconsistent. But overall, i like having it as a resource for wise quotes!
Kind of unhappy with the sexism of this one. I like the concept, but the title alone gives an idea of the potential pseudo-feminism within. There are some pretty anti-men quotes in here, as well as a few misogynist comments (some people seem to forget that just because a woman says it doesn't mean it's not anti-woman) but there are also some great equality quotes as well. Sort of have to pick and choose. Not a feminist collection by any means, but definitely includes some here and there. I was a...more
Since I read this cover to cover, the conflicting opinions were a little disorienting, lol. And naturally there were a lot of statements I didn't agree with, but it's a great collection.
My copy is very dog-eared.

This entertaining and enlightening collection has a bunch of quotes from women I've actually never seen before. Good stuff.
Love the thousands of quotes! Everything from ability, age, religion, sex, work, ethics, and even youth. Great read!
A browsable book of quotations.
