    About this ebook

    A person without fun in his life is simply existing, for he misses a great deal of life. We all keep on looking for amusement in one form or other, however, sources of being amused happen to be different.

    The fun that can be derived from funny sentences of quotes is subtle, and only a few privileged ones can get amused by such witty words.

    The funny sentences or words that amuse us are mostly spoken unknowingly, for they involve the wisdom of the speaker. However, it is up to the wisdom of the listener to draw his own conclusion.

    In this book you will find hundreds of such funny thoughts or spoken words which will leave a very deep impression on your mind. Some of them will definitely remain in your memory for a very long time.

      Preface

      Who doesn’t want to be amused? Amusement can come from various sources, but the fun that is derived from words is unique. Sometimes knowingly and sometimes unknowingly funny thoughts are spoken and they delight the listeners. It is not that such funny thoughts merely happen to by funny, they happen to be quite witty.

      To express funny thoughts in words is definitely an art, perhaps, a god gift. Several great people are known for their funny remarks and statements. In this book you will get hundreds of such funny and amusing sentences spoken by famous and great people from different walks of life.
