Famous quotes containing the word books:
“In an extensive reading of recent books by psychologists, psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, and inspirationalists, I have discovered that they all suffer from one or more of these expression-complexes: italicizing, capitalizing, exclamation-pointing, multiple-interrogating, and itemizing. These are all forms of what the psychos themselves would call, if they faced their condition frankly, Rhetorical-Over-Compensation.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
“Good books do not make people wiser or happier—only more conscious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“I do not hesitate to read ... all good books in translations. What is really best in any book is translatable—any real insight or broad human sentiment.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
