A clever and sarcastic book by Ambrose Bierce showcasing entertaining definitions like:
YEAR, n. A period of three hundred and sixty-five disappointments.
CURIOSITY, n. An objectionable quality of the female mind. The desire to know whether or not a woman is cursed with curiosity is one of the most active and insatiable passions of the masculine soul.
ACQUAINTANCE, n. A person we know well enough to borrow from, but not well enough to lend to.
Get it here.
