Post subject: Excerpt: Quotations from "Values of the Wise"
Archived from groups: rec>arts>books>marketplace, others (more info?)

I have permission from Little Moose Press to distribute an
excerpt from a new collection of quotations entitled
"Building a Life of Value: Timeless Wisdom to Inspire and
Empower Us." Selected by philosopher Jason Merchey, this
multicultural compendium belongs on every writer's
reference shelf -- just to the left of Bartlett's.

The excerpt I'm distributing contains a sampler of exotic
couplings found together in the book:


=> Albert Einstein & Annie Lennox on altruism
=> Al Franken & Abe Lincoln on honesty
=> Lyndon Johnson & Lucinda Williams on self-image
=> Friedrich Nietzsche & Goldie Hawn on strength
=> Howard Zinn & Ben Franklin on war
=> Ayn Rand & Allen Ginsberg on survival

"Building a Life of Value" is a diverse collection of
unforgettable lines. Half the entries are by women, with
contributions from poets, politicians, and philosophers the
world over. It is an ideal gift for high school or college
graduates, whether they continue in school or pursue
careers in politics, business, or religion.

To get the excerpt from "Building a Life of Value," send
mailto:excerpts@authorviews.com with the subject line,
"Send Quotes" and I will reply with the text -- and *only*
the text -- NO file attachments or opt-in mailing list jive.
