The Original Wit

Wit is a personal labour of love -- a collection of humorous quotations gathered over a period of twenty years. Here are some of the gems included in this book: An open marriage is Nature's way of telling you need a divorce. Ann Landers This is not a book to be cast aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force. Dorothy Parker It's only by not paying one's bills that one can hope to live in the memory of the commercial classes. Oscar Wilde The secret of a good sermon is to have a good beginning and a good ending and having the two as close together as possible. George Burns It is not vital to succeed -- others might fail. Gore Vidal Have you ever noticed that wrong numbers are never engaged. Steven Wright The first thing I do in the morning is to read the obituaries in The Times and if I am not in them get up. Noel Coward And much, much more.
