Discover the movies, celebrities, politicians, artists, writers and historical figures responsible for the world's most inspiring, amusing and just plain weird quotes. This multiple-choice card game is designed for history and pop-culture obsessives, as they battle to match quotes with the person who uttered (or penned) them. Packaged as 430 cards in a deck, this simple game can be played anywhere you'd like. An example round: a card is pulled that reads, "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing". Players must decide if they would attribute this quote to A) Walt Disney, B) Barack Obama or C) Steve Jobs. If players said the answer on the back of the card (Walt Disney), they've got their first point. And so each round goes, with two to infinite players, until you reach the end of the playing deck when the player with the most points wins. This game will test your general knowledge as you uncover some of the best gaffes that modern history has to offer.
