Famous quotes containing the word books:

    I think the adjective “post-modernist” really means “mannerist.” Books about books is fun but frivolous.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Postmodernism is, almost by definition, a transitional cusp of social, cultural, economic and ideological history when modernism’s high-minded principles and preoccupations have ceased to function, but before they have been replaced with a totally new system of values. It represents a moment of suspension before the batteries are recharged for the new millennium, an acknowledgment that preceding the future is a strange and hybrid interregnum that might be called the last gasp of the past.
    Gilbert Adair, British author, critic. Sunday Times: Books (London, April 21, 1991)

    If my books had been any worse, I should not have been invited to Hollywood, and ... if they had been any better, I should not have come.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
