註釋The fastest way to success in any endeavor of life is to compile and study the wisdom of people who have been where you want to go. This collective wisdom is stored between quotation marks.
 
Words That Shaped Our World is a powerful collection of quotations that are significant not only for their message, but for who spoke or wrote them and the circumstances under which they were produced. Jim Stovall, a New York Times bestselling author whose books have been adapted into films, and Kathy Johnson, a highly regarded author and editor, share their insight on fifty quotations that transcend the time and place in which they were written and form a powerful part of the collective human experience. These are the quotations we live by, that shape our lives, and that inspire us to live a more meaningful life—quotations from:
  • Presidents and politicians—such as Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill
  • Novelists, poets, and playwrights—such as William Shakespeare, Mark Twain, George Bernard Shaw, and Maya Angelou
  • Scientists, philosophers, and psychologists—such as Socrates, Albert Einstein, Carl Jung, and Stephen Hawking
