Famous quotes containing the word books:

    With a few exceptions, the critics of children’s books are remarkably lenient souls.... Most of us assume there is something good in every child; the critics go from this to assume there is something good in every book written for a child. It is not a sound theory.
    Katharine S. White (1892–1977)

    The world has held great Heroes,
    As history books have showed;
    But never a name to go down to fame
    Compared with that of Toad!
    Kenneth Grahame (1859–1932)

    All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
