Praise for A Dictionary of Love "A Dictionary of Love is a
veritable Valentine of a book. It's a tidy collection of bon mots
on the subject of love." The Sunday Herald, Monterrey, CA "A really
fun book to read. There is either a good laugh or a real thought
provoker (or even both) on each page." New England Bride "Consider
these 'pearls of wisdom' from A Dictionary of Love" Family Circle
"Who wrote the book of love? The Answer, historians will argue.
might be pretty difficult to trace. But one thing is certainly
true, whoever wrote the book of love could probably have used Gil
Friedman's A Dictionary of Love, on the desk beside the tablets,
papyrus sheets, sheepskin, or whatever the muses used in the misty
land of romantic wisdom." Chico Enterprise Record, Chico, CA "With
its variety of quotes-from the acerbic to the spiritual to the
sentimental-this collection is never dull, and it also offers many
thoughts worth meditating on." Small Press Review "Beautiful Work."
John Robbins, author of Diet for a Small America ..".Very beautiful
book, we will refer to it often." Joyce and Barry Visell, authors
of The Shared Heart "What a joy to receive your wonderful book. I
am honored you included mine." Susan Jeffers, author of Feel the
Fear and Do It Anyway "A great depository of quotes on love."
Single Adult Ministry Information "What sets Mr. Friedman's volume
apart from earlier anthologies on the theme of love is that he
included many New Age sages and they add a touch of seriousness and
timeliness. There is Rollo May, Meher Baba, Gerald G. Jampolsky,
Bernie S. Siegal, to mention just a few." North Coast News "Funny,
rueful, practical, wise and compassionate, this collection is a
recommended gift to anyone who is in or might be in a love
relationship (like teenagers). One charming feature is the great
range of attitudes displayed. One can disagree totally with one,
and on the same page find one that rings true and provides an
insight. Lots of fun, and more educational than many a tome." New
Age Retailer "This rich reference book is a must for all of us who
want to express and understand love. Helpful, funny, bittersweet
comments and insights. . . In all, about 300 lovers from various
times and places unite to guide the reader on an odyssey invaluable
to those who write lyrics, poetry, or an occasional love letter. It
would make a suitable gift to mark either the end or the beginning
of a love affair." Body, Mind Spirit "Witty, profound and sometimes
just plain fun this book is a delightful addition to the growing
ranks of subject specific quotation books. It will be welcome by
anyone-reader, writer, or librarian-who has ever searched in vain
for just the right quote on the subject of love." American
