Gradual/book

Famous quotes containing the words gradual and/or book:

“I saw, in gradual vision through my tears,
The sweet, sad years, the melancholy years, . . .”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

“To me a book is a message from the gods to mankind; or, if not, should never be published at all.... A message from the gods should be delivered at once. It is damnably blasphemous to talk about the autumn season and so on. How dare the author or publisher demand a price for doing his duty, the highest and most honourable to which a man can be called?”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
