Famous quotes containing the word covers:
“Whatever an author puts between the two covers of his book is public property; whatever of himself he does not put there is his private property, as much as if he had never written a word.”
—Gail Hamilton (18331896)
“The covers of this book are too far apart.”
—Ambrose Bierce (18421914)
“... nothing seems completely to differentiate the poor but poverty. We find no adjectives to fit them, as a whole, only those of which Want is the mother. Miserable covers many; shabby most, and I am sadly aware that, in a large majority of minds, disagreeable includes them all.”
—Albion Fellows Bacon (18651933)
