MAD: The Complete Half-Wit and Wisdom of Alfred E. Neuman

by MAD Magazine (Editor), Sergio Aragones (Illustrator)

Plato? Ick! Shakespeare? Ecch? Walt Whitman? Feh! Why quote these great pundits when you can quote Neuman? Alfred E., that is--the famous half-wit whose MAD philosophy has helped shape generations and continues to this day to warp minds the world over? In what could only be termed a golden opportunity to change your miserable existence, you now hold in your clammy hands the creme de la creme d'Alfredo--classic pearls of idiocy culled from more than fifty moronic years of quotes spewed by MAD magazine's Alfred E. Neuman. So forget Plato, forget Shakespeare, forget Whitman--just like you used to forget them during exams! Just remember Neuman. He's got a philosophy even you can live by!

Quick afternoon diversion. For my review, I'll paraphrase:

Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Twain, Marx, Berra?
Man in Black: Yes.
Vizzini: Morons.
