Famous quotes containing the words books, joseph and/or mitchell:

    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)

    Leave your theory, as Joseph his coat in the hand of the harlot, and flee.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    We are stardust,
    We are golden,
    And we got to get ourselves
    Back to the garden.
    —Joni Mitchell (b. 1943)
