Close to 700 inspiring quotations are presented here, under three broad headings:
- Inspiration and Motivation
- God and Spirituality
- Love and Relationships
Within these three groupings the quotes flow through various related themes. Happiness, attitude, dreams, determination, courage, leadership, vision, peace, friendship, forgiveness, and compassion are just a few of these themes.
These quotations have been carefully selected and compiled by Eskandar from the thousands that he has gathered over the years. The resulting "bunch of other people's flowers" represents a distillation of the collective wisdom of humankind. The first edition of Flowers from the Tree of Wisdom was published in 2003 and the second edition in 2005. In this third expanded edition, the number of quotes has been more than doubled.
While many collections of inspiring quotations have been published, this one stands out, both for the high quality of its contents and for its tasteful presentation. This special book carries an energy of its own, and that is what makes it so precious. It makes a wonderful gift - and a lasting one, as the messages it contains can be referred to again and again throughout a lifetime.
