Summary: Shakespearean Wisdom Fit For Our New Age
Comment: This is a fun read for all who would like to include the wit and wisdom of Shakespeare in their daily communications. The alphabetical topics include such topics as lateness, wisdom, family, and happiness. Additional specific topics cover Principals, such as Hamlet and MacBeth. When searching for the right phrase, one has only to look up a subject and there are multiple examples of Shakespearean wisdom from which to choose. The book is equally fun to just read page after page. This is a good add-on for those who studied Shakespeare and now wish to refresh their knowledge on the subject.

Summary: Typical Shakespeare reference
Comment: This book, while categorized nicely by subjects like guilt and optimism, was not quite as helpful as I had hoped. Those who compiled this book seemed to stretch the limits regarding how relevant each quote was to a subject. It's a nice reference to have if you just like Shakespeare, but don't expect to buy this book and easily find a quote that will be appropriate for a speech or paper.
Rating: 5
Summary: Well organized and helpful!
Comment: From Action to Youth, "A Dictionary of Quotations" is a very accessible and easy to use book with over 3,000 Shakespeare quotes on over 400 subjects. Each section is printed in bold making it easy to flip through the pages to find a favorite passage. The exhaustive index is also helpful. Recommended for English majors or anyone who enjoys literature!
