The Booklover's Book of Jokes, Quips and Quotes spans centuries to provide a book full of bookish humour, pithy sayings, one-liners and the just plain silly.With sections containing the best barbs from Oscar Wilde, insults from Shakespeare, wise words from Jane Austen, John Milton and P G Wodehouse, silly book titles, 'light bulb' and 'knock-knock' jokes, this jolly little book is a cornucopia of delight and light relief for book lovers everywhere.The jokes range from the erudite and wise words of an old master, Horace: 'Knowledge is the foundation and source of good writing', to the puerile and unaccredited: 'My father gave me a dictionary for my birthday. But I just couldn't find the words to thank him'.
