Famous Lasting Words is the best book for those who are looking for a book full of quotations. But wait! It doesn't just contain any quotations, but Canadian quotations. Topics like love, litterature, cooking.....you can literally find any quote. Of course, this is helpful for those who want to publish a book with a neat little quote in the front.
