Famous quotes containing the word books:

    If only I could manage, without annoyance to my family, to get imprisoned for 10 years, “without hard labour,” and with the use of books and writing materials, it would be simply delightful!
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    I think the adjective “post-modernist” really means “mannerist.” Books about books is fun but frivolous.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    Some time ago a publisher told me that there are four kinds of books that seldom, if ever, lose money in the United States—first, murder stories; secondly, novels in which the heroine is forcibly overcome by the hero; thirdly, volumes on spiritualism, occultism and other such claptrap, and fourthly, books on Lincoln.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
