These odd quotes are just strange enough to convince you the world's off-kilter
Our odd quotes may be good for a laugh. Or they may make you scratch your head.
Some are funny, some will make you say, "Aha!" and others will make you wonder why we included them in this collection.
Most weird quotes--most quotes, for that matter--are filched from one web site to another. Ours are different. They're filched from books! You probably won't find them anywhere else on the 'Net, until other sites start to filch them from here.
So you saw these odd quotes here first. If you've read this far, you may be a bit strange yourself. Most folks just jump right in and skip this intro.
After you're done here, you may want to jump over and sample our funny quotes.
But enough of this, already. Now, enjoy!
