  This is a collection of over 7,000 quotations, arranged thematically from Courage or Parliament , to topical themes such as the Internet or Genetic Engineering . The quotations that stand together in each particular theme range from the very old to the modern: both Horace and Maeve Binchy comment on the theme The Present , while Desmond Morris and Jeremy Bentham give their views on the category of Animal Rights . An author index (including descriptions and context lines) gives access to what is in the dictionary and provides information on each author.
