I will admit I haven't read this cover to cover, like one (normally) wouldn't read a dictionary cover to cover, and I got it primarily because Nick Galifianakis did illustrations. That said, there are some interesting entries, though not many I would necessarily find "inspiring, enough to motivate me to achieve similar greatness despite my age.
Some of that may be that I took a long, hard look at greatness, and I didn't really find it worth pursuing. I am where I am, and it feels fine to me.
Could be good for someone else looking for inspiration, though! (or Nick's art!) -
This is a short (under 2 hour read), but charming little book filled with inspiring stories of human achievement. One to keep by the bedside for those dog days when the light at the end of the tunnel seems so far away. Some of the achievements are beyond amazing and it is comforting and wise to know that there so much potential in all of us at any age.
