Famous quotes containing the words adventure and/or book:
“Happy a while in Paradise they lay;
But quickly woman longed to go astray:
Some foolish new adventure needs must prove,
And the first devil she saw, she chang’d her love:
To his temptations, lewdly she inclined
Her soul, and, for an apple, damn’d mankind.”
—Thomas Otway (1652–1685)
“No man ever walked down to posterity with so small a book under his arm.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
