• This book consists of the daily quotations that this author posted to his website and blog during 2011.
• It continues a series that was started in 2003 and has been continuing ever since, with the current collection being compiled in 2020.

• The quotations are typically a group of five (or sometimes six) consecutive statements on or about the same theme or topic.
