Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “They lard their lean books with the fat of others’ works.”
    —Robert Burton (1577–1640)

    “There is no luck in literary reputation. They who make up the final verdict upon every book are not the partial and noisy readers of the hour when it appears; but a court as of angels, a public not to be bribed, not to be entreated, and not to be overawed, decides upon every man’s title to fame. Only those books come down which deserve to last.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “No common-place is ever effectually got rid of, except by essentially emptying one’s self of it into a book; for once trapped in a book, then the book can be put into the fire, and all will be well. But they are not always put into the fire; and this accounts for the vast majority of miserable books over those of positive merit.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
