Familiar Quotations A collection of passages, phrases, and proverbs traced to their sources in ancient and modern literature.
Authors appear chronologically in the order of their birth dates; authors born in the same year are arranged alphabetically. The quotations for each author are generally in chronological order according to the date of publication (in some instances according to the date of composition). Poetry generally precedes prose for authors who wrote both.
Each quotation has a source line supplying title, date (most often that of publication) and any other helpful information.
The Index of authors provides birth and death dates and the page number for the quotations by each author, as well as the page numbers for any additional quotations by that author in the footnotes.
To find a particular book of the Bible, see the Bible entry, where the books are listed alphabetically. The same is true for Shakespeare; to find any work, consult the Shakespeare entry.
The Bartlett index is arranged by keywords, not topics.
