Modern Proverbs is dedicated to all who love proverbs, sayings and idioms tripping off their tongues, or off the tongues of others. If the old proverbs sometimes seem a little bit too old, then perhaps what you need is a modern proverb, designed for our age, the 21st century. This book contains over 500 new proverbs I decided to write during the down times of many a business trip. It's amazing how inspiring it can be to stare out the window of a jet at 30,000 feet and watch huge cloud banks drift across the landscape far below. I fell in love with proverbs and idioms around the age of ten, when I was gifted a book of proverbs by my grandmother. I dived into it, and finished it in a day or so. Those first proverbs gave me an essential weapon to fight adversity (not to mention the angst of a normal adolescence): a comeback ability second to none in my rather limited circle. So it was fun to start with a blank page, a pen, and my memories of days gone by. If you know someone who enjoys reading or proverbs, it could make a good gift, just as my grandmother's did to me when I was young. I hope that Modern Proverbs inspires others to create new proverbs! We could do with a few thousand more. Glenn Ashton BA, LLB, MBA

21st Century Proverbs and ThoughtsIn a dare to dare approach, our modern day life trends are identified, confronted and questioned. Presently our society have witnessed and continue to experience stark and startling changes. What was oh so wrong in yesteryear is now oh so right in this present era. Legislators in today's governments have paralyzed their constituents as they see their constitutional guarantees evaporate before their very eyes. The whims of the minority subjugate, subvert and make subordinate the will of the majority. Our 21st century so called democracies have put our liberties in the back seat, rolled up the windows and strapped them in with the child locks engaged. This makes it almost impossible to stand up or speak out against an ever shifting morality that's spiraling downwards. Faced with unprecedented legislations and fiat presidential mandates a sense of powerlessness pervade the masses. Many now hang their heads and whisper in almost total silence, "who would have thought." Against this backdrop and in an ever changing landscape of spirituality, morality, civility and even reality itself, 21st Century Proverbs and Thoughts- a Reality Check, has emerged.

In 1860 Abraham Lincoln employed the proverb, Right makes might, (opposite of the more aggressive Might makes right) in his famed Cooper Union address. While Lincoln did not originate the proverb, his use of it in this critical speech indicates that the 14th century phrase had taken on new ethical and democratic connotations in the 19th century. In this collection, famed scholar of proverbs Wolfgang Mieder explores the multifaceted use and function of proverbs through the history of the United States, from their early beginnings up through their use by today's well-known politicians, including Barack Obama, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Bernie Sanders. Building on previous publications and unpublished research, Mieder explores sociopolitical aspects of the American worldview as expressed through the use of proverbs in politics, women's rights, and the civil rights movement. By looking at the use of proverbial phrases, Mieder demonstrates how one traditional phrase can take on numerous expressive roles over time and how they continue to play a key role in our contemporary moment.

"You can't unring a bell." "It takes a village to raise a child." "Life is just a bowl of cherries." We sometimes think of proverbs as expressions of ancient wisdom, but in fact new proverbs are constantly arising. This unique volume is devoted exclusively to English language proverbs that originated in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The most complete and accurate such collection ever compiled, The Yale Book of Modern Proverbs presents more than 1,400 individual proverbs gathered and researched with the help of electronic full-text databases not previously used for such a project. Entries are organized alphabetically by key words, with information about the earliest datable appearance, origin, history, and meaning of each proverb. Mundane or sublime, serious or jocular, these memorable sayings represent virtually every aspect of the modern experience. Readers will find the book almost impossible to put down once opened; every page offers further proof of the immense vitality of proverbs and their colorful contributions to the oral traditions of today.

William's objective with this book is to encourage and inspire the reader to be a champion in the Human Race, using the strategy he used to overcome the trauma of being shot in the head and losing his ability to walk, as well as his wife of 15 years, his home, and his business. He found that his "joy deficit" was something that had to be addressed because no joy means no strength and no motivation. So, if you're ready to elevate in life, and fill the joy-send of your heart and mind, then this book is a valuable find. If this book has for you what William hopes is its desired effect, please share this with others so they can find relief also. Thank you for your support.
