Famous quotes containing the word books:
“So far as I am individually concerned, & independent of my pocket, it is my earnest desire to write those sort of books which are said to fail.”
—Herman Melville (18191891)
“Of all the ways of acquiring books, writing them oneself is regarded as the most praiseworthy method.... Writers are really people who write books not because they are poor, but because they are dissatisfied with the books which they could buy but do not like.”
