Famous quotes containing the words books and/or fuller:

    There is a sort of homely truth and naturalness in some books which is very rare to find, and yet looks cheap enough. There may be nothing lofty in the sentiment, or fine in the expression, but it is careless country talk. Homeliness is almost as great a merit in a book as in a house, if the reader would abide there. It is next to beauty, and a very high art. Some have this merit only.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We got a right to climb out of the sewer and live like other people. We could start from scratch. Make every minute count twice for the one we lost.
    —Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)
