Famous quotes containing the word volume:

    Although volume upon volume is written to prove slavery a very good thing, we never hear of the man who wishes to take the good of it, by being a slave himself.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Thy commandment all alone shall live
    Within the book and volume of my brain
    Unmixed with baser matter.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Love is both Creator’s and Saviour’s gospel to mankind; a volume bound in rose-leaves, clasped with violets, and by the beaks of humming-birds printed with peach-juice on the leaves of lilies.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
