Description
There are many books of quotations published in India and elsewhere. The forerunner of all these books was Berietts " Familier Quotations" published first in 1855.
To quote from P.L. Peacock, " A Book that furnishes no quotation is no book- it is a playing."
This is one among the many of the books of quotations. You are brought nearer to the great ideas of the past and the present.
The conflicts in ideas in the history of mankind depict the progress upheavals, revolutions and retardations of the civilisation.
These quotations have been selected from sources readily available and popular authors. Masters and servants, rich and poor, democrats and dictators, bourgeoise and proletariat, the ruler and the ruled, writers and students, slaves and freeman, Scientists and others are sources indiscriminately drawn from. Alphabetically and ideologically arranged, this will be an easy and ready reference worth to adorn your library.
Grest men always think alike is a maxim as well an aphorism. But their for ebodings have always dominated this world. This book has been profusely drawn from the grest thoughts of the West and East.
"Due attention to the inside of books and the contempt for the outside is the proper relation between a man of sense and his books" says the Earl of chester-field. The inside and outside have been met culously taken care of by the Publishers. My grateful thanks to Late Mr. Janakiram of Balaji Publications, the pionear publishers of the language series in India.
