Famous quotes containing the words black and/or book:
“Long sibilant-muscled trees
Were lifting up, the black poplars.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“The newspaper is a Bible which we read every morning and every afternoon, standing and sitting, riding and walking. It is a Bible which every man carries in his pocket, which lies on every table and counter, and which the mail, and thousands of missionaries, are continually dispersing. It is, in short, the only book which America has printed, and which America reads. So wide is its influence.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
