內容簡介
內容簡介 According To Festus(c) is a collection of 206 sayings and 71 stories of wisdom by Festus Haggen of Gunsmoke(c) fame. Festus' sayings and stories are supported by Biblical Proverbs and Bible references. I hope you enjoy reading and pondering them as much as I did when I compiled them. Actor Ken Curtis as Festus was a constant source of joy, wit and laughter, and he was a gifted entertainer. In his character of Festus he was no saint, but he possessed a deep sense of goodness, loyalty and wisdom. Hence the supporting Biblical Proverbs and Bible references in According to Festus are thought provoking and introspective for readers. They show the 'humanness' of Festus Haggen and if we look closely into his character we may even see ourselves.
