Famous quotes containing the words book and/or fair:
““Classic.” A book which people praise and don’t read.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Where the Moosatockmaguntic
Pours its waters in the Skuntic,
Met, along the forest side
Hiram Hover, Huldah Hyde.
She, a maiden fair and dapper,
He, a red-haired, stalwart trapper,
Hunting beaver, mink, and skunk
In the woodlands of Squeedunk.”
—Bayard Taylor (1825–1878)
