Famous quotes containing the word books:
“For books are more than books, they are the life
The very heart and core of ages past,
The reason why men lived and worked and died,
The essence and quintessence of their lives.”
—Amy Lowell (1874–1925)

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“The books one has written in the past have two surprises in store: one couldn’t write them again, and wouldn’t want to.”
