Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Even bad books are books and therefore sacred.”
    —Günther Grass (b.1927)

    “For books are not absolutely dead things, but do contain a potency of life in them to be as active as that soul was whose progeny they are; nay, they do preserve as in a vial the purest efficacy and extraction of that living intellect that bred them. I know they are as lively, and as vigorously productive, as those fabulous dragon’s teeth; and being sown up and down, may chance to spring up armed men.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Certain books seem to have been written not for the purpose that we learn something from them but that we know that the author was a knowledgeable person.”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
