The Opening Lines of the World's Most Famous Books | Daily Infographic

The Opening Lines of the World's Most Famous Books | Daily Infographic | World's Best Infographics | Scoop.it

They say not to judge a book by its cover, but there’s no saying about judging a book by its first line.


I can usually tell within a few minutes if I’ll enjoy a book. Based on this infographic, it seems that many famous books are good from the start.


I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times,” but did you know the entire first line for “A Tale of Two Cities” is much longer? The first sentence in the book is a whopping 119 words.


On the other hand, “Fahrenheit 451” opens with an easy to remember one-liner: “It was a pleasure to burn.”...

Here are the opening lines of 34 of the world's famous books.

Infographic: The Map Of Truth And Deception

Infographic: The Map Of Truth And Deception | World's Best Infographics | Scoop.it
You’re lied to 10 to 200 times a day, and a stranger will lie to you three times in the first 10 minutes of a conversation. That’s unsettling news, but according to a TED Talk by Pamela Meyer, we only pretend to be against lying.
Jeff Domansky's insight:

Wonderful concept and design for this infographic on truth and deception.

Bright Medusa's curator insight, January 22, 2014 11:38 AM

The best piece of advice to just get started is to just get started. I (and many other novice writers) fear not getting it perfect out of the gate. There’s a nugget of wisdom in only commiting to do the first 80% of the writing. That is, get it about 80% of the way there. The first draft. Unpretty. Unpolished. Then pass it to someone you trust for edits and critiques. This helps keep momentum going and prevents you from getting stuck, unsure how to pull it together or finish it up.
