Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This short book combines our endless fascination with memorable and pithy quotes with the recent rise of Twitter. All of the quotes in this book were chosen so that they can fit the Twitter microblogging format - they are all at most 140 characters long. Some of the quotes are centuries old and are attributed to personages that are as far removed from our instant-information culture as they come, such as William Shakespeare, Lao Tzu and Abraham Lincoln. Nonetheless, even the quotes from these long-dead luminaries seem strangely appropriate for being posted on Twitter. This fact either speaks volumes about the timelessness of their insights, or perhaps how trite and banal they were all along and it took the advent of Twitter for us to realize this. I think I'll go with the first option, and post some of these quotes on my Twitter stream. You are all welcome to retweet them.
