Notes to
Conner's Unfamiliar Quotations

Quips, Quotations, and Quodlibets

mostly not found in Bartlett's

An attempt has been made to locate reliable and interesting links related to nearly all of the authors cited. Readers will appreciate the fact that there are no guarantees of accuracy or quality on the Internet. It is interesting that some of the most eminent authors are associated with some of the scantiest resources. That's life on the World Wide Web.

Persons who are aware of better links than those provided are invited to communicate with David Conner at connect2@csd.net. At present the following abbreviations are being used to indicate something of the character of the existing references.

• {rel} This means that the site to which the link leads may be viewed as reliable, if not indeed comprehensive or definitive. Many of these sites have been created by scholars at leading institutions. Some of the pages are the creations of the authors themselves.
• {bsf} This signifies that the location is the "best site found" by the editor. Most of these pages are either too brief or offer only incidental information about the author in question.
• {cgs} cum grano salis. Take these pages with a grain of salt. Some of these locations appear to offer misinformation. Several have been produced either by persons with a rather obtrusive axe to grind or by individuals whose own egos intrude inordinately upon the purported subject matter.
