Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “The more books we read, the clearer it becomes that the true function of a writer is to produce a masterpiece and that no other task is of any consequence.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Ideas are only lethal if you suppress and don’t discuss them. Ignorance is not bliss, it’s stupid. Banning books shows you don’t trust your kids to think and you don’t trust yourself to be able to talk to them.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “All books are either dreams or swords,
    You can cut, or you can drug, with words.”
    —Amy Lowell (1874–1925)
