Beautiful Book

A book all should have. With its beautiful quotes...they really touch a person. I've shared this book with friends and family, also giving it as a gift. I highly recommend.

A beautiful book, inside and out

This is one of those books that you will pick up time and again. It is a collection of passages, all around the theme of "Grace." But it is much more than just a random selection of quotes; considerable thought has been put into grouping them into a series of concepts, such as "Soul," "Heart," "Action." Aronson draws from a very wide ranging set of authors and speakers, from well known historical figures (such as Aesop, Emerson, Dickens) to current day writers and personalities (the Dalai Lama, Arthur Ashe, Leo Buscaglia). This is not at all a set of 'sappy' quotes, but rather a thoughtful compendium of all that 'grace' really is, should be, and can be. Beautifully laid out, with a simple but very appealing cover, the book will make a great present.
