OverviewWinston Churchill once remarked, It is a good thing for an educated man to read books of quotations. This is a result of the immense power that is concealed in the thoughts of great individuals. Quotations not only make us wiser, they help to swiftly connect us to the most sacred inner thoughts of an individual. Joseph Roux finely states a fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand of a fool. This book has been compiled to act as a direct and insightful source of African maxims. It covers categories such as family life, food, friendship, love beauty and wisdom. It consists of the best maxims from the many wonderful countries that make up the unique continent of Africa. If a child washes his hands he could eat with kings. A child's fingers are not scalded by a piece of hot yam which his mother puts into his palm. However long the night, the dawn will break. To run is not necessarily to arrive. Love is a despot who spares no one. One thread for the needle, one love for the heart.
