Famous quotes containing the word books:

    The books one has written in the past have two surprises in store: one couldn’t write them again, and wouldn’t want to.
    Jean Rostand (1894–1977)

    Even bad books are books and therefore sacred.
    Günther Grass (b.1927)

    I am absent altogether too much to be a suitable instructor for a law-student. When a man has reached the age that Mr. Widner has, and has already been doing for himself, my judgment is, that he reads the books for himself without an instructor. That is precisely the way I came to the law.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
