Book Covers

Famous quotes containing the words book and/or covers:

    “Slavery is no scholar, no improver; it does not love the whistle of the railroad; it does not love the newspaper, the mail-bag, a college, a book or a preacher who has the absurd whim of saying what he thinks; it does not increase the white population; it does not improve the soil; everything goes to decay.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The covers of this book are too far apart.”
    —Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)
