Famous quotes containing the word books:

    Translate a book a dozen times from one language to another, and what becomes of its style? Most books would be worn out and disappear in this ordeal. The pen which wrote it is soon destroyed, but the poem survives.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    His books are solid and workmanlike, as all that England does; and they are graceful and readable also.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
