I just read the Myth series by Robert Asprin (well the first two books
in the series) and I must say that I really enjoyed them.  There is nothing
like some mindless fun now and then to keep the soul fresh and free.

I liked the 'quotes' at the start of each chapter, but I must confess
that some of the people that are attributed with the quotes escapes me.
Could someone take some time, and fill me in on who these people are.
It's not important, but I hate being left out of a joke.

Thanx

The List:

From Another Fine Myth:

"First impressions are of major importance in business matters"

"Since prehistoric man, no battle has ever gone as planned"
- D. Graeme (ch 23)

From Myth Conceptions:

"If the proper preparations have been made and the necessary precautions
taken, any staged event is guaranteed success"
- Ethelred the Unready (ch 4)

"That's Entertainment!"
- Vlad the Impaler (ch 6)

"Anything worth doing, is worth doing for a profit"
- Teresias (ch 8)

"It takes a giant to fight a giant"
- H. Prym (ch 21)

"Hell hath no fury like a demon scorched"

"...and then I said to myself, `Why should I split it two ways-'"
- G. Mouser (ch 24)

That's all, thanx in advance
