Satirical quotes for every dayWhether in everyday life or on special events: An appropriate quote can save any situation and provide new momentum. How-ever, if you want to stand out from the crowd and show character, you need to demonstrate originality. My suggestion: humor. Brutal-ly truthful and slightly mean humor, to be precise. Instead of tor-menting your fellow human beings with corny positive banter, you can turn the tables and hand out a few snappy sayings.Dry humor disguised as original quotesAn atrocious quip at the right time invigorates every relationship, shakes things up and creates a new perspective. It's not about of-fending the other person (at least not permanently), but solely about the surprising impulse and the shared joy of a little blunt-ness.The ultimate collection of satirical quotesThe quotes in this book come from writers, politicians, scientists, actors, artists and other important personalities. In short: from suc-cessful people who have achieved great things and developed a passion for sarcastic remarks and subtle jibes. I would like to pass this curious collection on to you.A cheeky quote every dayIn this book, each day of the year has its own quote. Although I have assigned each quote to a specific date, this does not mean that you have to follow my pre-selection. You can read the book in a criss-cross fashion and remind yourself of your favorite sayings over and over again. I have also categorized the quotes themati-cally so that you can quickly find the most (in)appropriate words for special occasions such as birthdays, weddings or family celebra-tions.A little foretaste15th January:"An intelligent man sometimes needs to be drunk to spend time with idiots."- Ernest Hemingway11th February:"In old age, children are a comfort as long as they don't come to visit you."- Sarah Bernhardt18th March:"You never know what's going to happen in this world.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Tim Reichel, Jahrgang 1988, ist Autor, Wissenschaftler und Unternehmer. Nach dem Abitur studierte er Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen an der RWTH Aachen und ist anschließend zur Promotion an der Uni geblieben. Dort betreut er seitdem industrienahe Forschungsprojekte und beschäftigt sich mit den Themen Nachhaltigkeit und Ressourceneffizienz. Seit sieben Jahren arbeitet er als Fachstudienberater und Koordinator eines Prüfungsausschusses. Dabei coacht er Studenten, berät bei Schwierigkeiten im Studium, schreibt Prüfungsordnungen und begleitet zudem Akkreditierungsverfahren (Letzteres ist sehr, sehr langweilig). Im Juni 2014 gründete er die Plattform studienscheiss.de. Mit dieser Webseite hilft er deutschlandweit tausenden Studenten und Bildungsinteressierten dabei, glücklich und erfolgreich zu studieren, um in der späteren Berufswelt zurechtzukommen. Im Jahr 2016 wurde aus dem Start-up ein unabhängiger, kleiner Verlag. In seinem Blog veröffentlicht er regelmäßig Artikel zu den Themen Zeitmanagement, Motivation und Persönlichkeitsentwicklung. Dort gibt er auch Tipps, wie man den stressigen Alltag in den Griff bekommen und sein Leben proaktiv gestalten kann.
