A New Dictionary of Quotations on Historical Principles from Ancient and Modern Sources
Author: Henry Louis Mencken
Publisher: New York : A. A. Knopf
ISBN:
Category : Quotations, English
Languages : en
Pages : 1376
Book Description
"This book is based upon a collection of quotations begun in 1918 or thereabout for my own use. Its purpose was to keep track of sayings that, for one reason or another, interested me and seemed worth remembering, but that, also for one reason or another, were not in the existing quotation-books. The collection grew steadily, helped by the contributions of friends who knew of it, and there arose inevitably the notion that it might be worth printing."--Preface written by H.L. Mencken.
