Famous quotes containing the words book and/or influence:

    “A good book is the precious lifeblood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “I think of consciousness as a bottomless lake, whose waters seem transparent, yet into which we can clearly see but a little way. But in this water there are countless objects at different depths; and certain influences will give certain kinds of those objects an upward influence which may be intense enough and continue long enough to bring them into the upper visible layer. After the impulse ceases they commence to sink downwards.”
    —Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
