Fallen/books

Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or books:

    corolla of bleary spikes pushed down and broken like a battered
    crown, seeds fallen out of its face, soon-to-be- toothless mouth of
    sunny air, sunrays obliterated on its hairy head like a dried wire
    spiderweb,
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    In the world of letters, learning and knowledge are one, and books are the source of both; whereas in science, as in life, learning and knowledge are distinct, and the study of things, and not of books, is the source of the latter.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
