Famous quotes containing the words private and/or edition:
“To love one person with a private love is poor and miserable: to love all is glorious.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
“Books have their destinies like men. And their fates, as made by generations of readers, are very different from the destinies foreseen for them by their authors. Gulliver’s Travels, with a minimum of expurgation, has become a children’s book; a new illustrated edition is produced every Christmas. That’s what comes of saying profound things about humanity in terms of a fairy story.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
