Famous quotes containing the words selected, books, printed and/or fawcett:

    “The final flat of the hoe’s approval stamp
    Is reserved for the bed of a few selected seed.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “After I discovered the real life of mothers bore little resemblance to the plot outlined in most of the books and articles I’d read, I started relying on the expert advice of other mothers—especially those with sons a few years older than mine. This great body of knowledge is essentially an oral history, because anyone engaged in motherhood on a daily basis has no time to write an advice book about it.”
    —Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)

    “If only it were God’s will that printed and written materials have as much influence on the people as the princes and their censors fear! Considering the countless good books we have, the world would have changed for the better a long time ago.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    “Blest be the tie that binds
    Our hearts in Christian love;
    The fellowship of kindred minds
    Is like to that above.”
    —John Fawcett (1739/40–1817)
