Overview

Insight emerges when you least expect it, and inspiration surfaces in surprising shapes and sizes-like a tiny scrap of paper tucked inside an after-dinner treat. If you've ever held the remains of a fortune cookie in your hands, you know the varying levels of bizarre and brilliant that encapsulate the wide array of one-liners. In Food with Thought, prolific author Edward Mickolus presents 2,230 fortunes, collected from friends and family over the past fifty years, which he organizes into six categories, including advice, personal qualities, and predictions. Whether you're looking for a motivational quote, life advice, or just a funny phrase, this comprehensive compilation has plenty of quips and sayings to please everyone, making it a great gift idea. Perhaps you need to hear that your skill and confidence are an unconquered army, or be reminded that though movies have pause buttons, friends do not. Whatever you seek, chances are good that you will find it in these pages.

Author Information

Edward Mickolus obtained a PhD from Yale University (before they noticed one was missing) and worked for thirty-three years at the Central Intelligence Agency as an analyst, operations specialist, manager, public affairs officer, and recruiter. After his time with the CIA, he worked with federal contracting firms teaching at intelligence and law enforcement agencies. He now lives in northeastern Florida. To create his twenty-seventh book, Food with Thought, Dr. Mickolus bugged his friends and family for more than fifty years to save their fortunes from great meals they ate. (But if you think his compilation of 2,230 fortune cookie aphorisms is impressive, wait until you see his 1,700 fashion-challenged neckties!)
