Famous quotes containing the word books:
“My only books Were woman’s looks And folly’s all they taught me.”
—Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
“History has shown that the less people read, the more books they buy.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“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)
