Oxymoronica: Paradoxical Wit and Wisdom from History's Greatest Wordsmiths

by Dr. Mardy Grothe, PH.D.

About this title: The author presents a collection of quotes that represents the best of "oxymoronica" which he defines as "Any variety of tantalizing, self-contradictory statements or observations that on the surface appear false or illogical, but at a deeper level are true, often profoundly true." This celebration of the paradox includes contributions from such varied sources as Aristotle, Dolly Parton, Lao-tzu, and Oscar Wilde.

Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is further described below.
