This collection holds 745 rejection quotes, drawn from writers, leaders, artists and thinkers across the QuoteForever archive. The most quoted voices here are Derek Jeter, Bob Gill and Audrey Flack.

They are ordered so that each author has a say before anyone repeats, which means the first page gives you the range of the topic rather than one writer's back catalogue.
