Product Description
Product Description
As evidenced by the phenomenal success of the Dilbert books, Americans love to laugh at the foibles of the business world. With "The Book of Truly Stupid Business Quotes," they can do just that. Packed with hundreds of examples of unintentional witticisms by the movers and shakers of the corporate sphere, it includes such gems as:
"I'd Say 'It's a Buttmaster, Your Holiness.'"
-- Suzanne Somers on how she would respond if the Pope asked her the name of the exercise apparatus she promotes
"Over a long weekend, I could teach my dog to be an investment banker."
-- Herbert Allen, president of Allen & Company, Inc., an investment banking firm
"My only complaint about having a father in fashion is that every time I'm about to go to bed with a guy, I have to look at my dad's name all over his underwear."
-- Marci Klein, daughter of Calvin Klein.
"I go to bed happy at night knowing that hair is growing on the faces of billions of males and on women's legs around the world while I sleep. It's more fun than counting sheep."
-- Warren Buffett, whose Berkshire Hathaway owns about 10% of the stock of The Gillette Company
