“When a thing has been said and said well, have no scruple. Take it and copy
it.” Stuck with speechifier’s block and in need of inspiration, a new edition of
Quotations for Speeches is at hand with more than 1000 quotations from a
multitude of sources. Among the sayings of great scientists, there’s Niels Bohr
on experts and superstition, Thomas Edison on achievement, Albert Einstein on
prejudice, relativity and teachers, Peter Medawar on ideas and Newton on
progress. And there are plenty of ribbings for abstinence, chance, experts,
hunting, life, science and even psychiatrists. Published by Bloomsbury and
edited by John Daintith, 拢12.99, ISBN 0747532656.
