Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “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)

    “If some books are deemed most baneful and their sale forbid, how, then, with deadlier facts, not dreams of doting men? Those whom books will hurt will not be proof against events. Events, not books, should be forbid.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “It is the interest one takes in books that makes a library. And if a library have interest it is; if not, it isn’t.”
    —Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
