“I have gathered a posie of other men’s flowers, and nothing but the thread that binds them is mine own.”

John Bartlett was a well known American writer in his day, but his best known work is his compilation of the words of others. Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations includes over a thousand pages of famous quotes spoken by hundreds of Western civilization’s most famous men and women, from Chaucer and Shakespeare to the Founding Fathers and Abraham Lincoln, with poets like Lord Byron and Sir Walter Scott inbetween. Hundreds of Bible quotes are included, as are quotes from Plutarch and Ancient writers. The quotes touch upon all of man’s interests, including life, love, death, immortality, honor, war, government, and more.

This edition of Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with dozens of pictures of some of the people quoted.
