Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “An author who speaks about his own books is almost as bad as a mother who talks about her own children.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.”
    —Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    “They lard their lean books with the fat of others’ works.”
    —Robert Burton (1577–1640)
