Famous quotes containing the word books:

    All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    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)

    Having books published is very destructive to writing. It is even worse than making love too much. Because when you make love too much at least you get a damned clarte that is like no other light. A very clear and hollow light.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
