Des Mc Hale has spent more than twenty years collecting humorous quotations from books, magazines, newspapers, radio, television, films, records, word of mouth and any other source you can possibly imagine. In Wit he includes the wit and wisdom of Oscar Wilde, Woody Allen, Mark Twain, Brendan Behan, Quentin Crisp, Noel Coward, Spike Milligan, Groucho Marx, Joan Rivers, George Bernard Shaw, Winston Churchill and Dorothy Parker to name but a few. Mc Hale believes a good humorous quotation should have several qualities: * It should be funny - it should provoke laughter or at least a smile. * It should be short and pithy, for brevity is the soul of wit. * It should be free standing i.e. it must be independent of the context in which it arises. All the quotations in this collection of over two thousand, adhere to the above and make this a timeless classic to be read over and over again.
