Famous quotes containing the word books:

    Now I am here, what thou wilt do with me
    None of my books will show:
    I reade, and sigh, and wish I were a tree;
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    I do not hesitate to read ... all good books in translations. What is really best in any book is translatable—any real insight or broad human sentiment.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
    And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
    Eagerly I wished the morrow;Mvainly I had sought to borrow
    From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore—
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
