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)

    “I am an inveterate homemaker, it is at once my pleasure, my recreation, and my handicap. Were I a man, my books would have been written in leisure, protected by a wife and a secretary and various household officials. As it is, being a woman, my work has had to be done between bouts of homemaking.”
    —Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)

    “O let my books be then the eloquence
    And dumb presagers of my speaking breast.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
