"Keep Calm and Carry On" was a WWII government poster discovered in a dusty box nine years ago. Though it never saw the light of day in 1939 (only intended to go up if Britain was invaded), it has suddenly struck a chord in our current difficult times.

This book is packed full of motivational and cheering quotes, proverbs, mantras and wry truths to help us through this current period of recession, from such wits as Churchill, Disraeli and George Bernard Shaw. Funny, wise and stirring - it is a perfect source of strength to get us all through troubled times.

Example Quotes:

• 'A banker is a fellow who lends you his umbrella when the sun is shining and wants it back the minute it begins to rain' - Mark Twain. 
• 'It's a recession when your neighbor loses his job; it's a depression when you lose your own' - Harry S. Truman. 
• 'Always laugh when you can. It is cheap medicine' - Lord Byron. 
• 'Better bread with water than cake with trouble' - Russian Proverb.

Great quotes and mantras to make you feel a little better and make you smile inside!
