Review Quotes: "An updated edition of the classic reference book containing over 12,000 quotations from all aspects of human activity, with attributions and new entries from public figures including Beyoncé, Louise Glück, and James Comey."--New York Times Book Review
"This new volume busts myths about who said what."--Jonathon Green, The Telegraph "Much has been said since The Yale Book of Quotations came out in 2006, and this updated version reflects that. It's not just the addition of over a thousand new quotes. . . . The New Yale Book of Quotations also meticulously updates sources of quotations, fixing common misattributions, . . . which usually results in women being given proper credit for pithy comments erroneously attributed to a man. . . . This volume should replace The Yale Book of Quotations, and is an essential ready-reference resource for researchers and browsers alike."--Susan Maguire, Booklist "Because it capitalizes on Big Data and other technological advances, [The New Yale Book of Quotations] can claim an authoritativeness that is unsurpassed. Hundreds of famous misattributions have been corrected--and probably thousands of misquotations as well. The Yale Book can legitimately claim to be the most accurate, thorough, and up-to-date quotation book ever compiled."--Bryan A. Garner, Los Angeles Review of Books "This excellent source is highly recommended for all libraries."--Choice "A snappy, welcome addition to any trivia buff's collection."--David K. Israel, Mental Floss (on the original edition)
