Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Books are fatal: they are the curse of the human race. Nine- tenths of existing books are nonsense, and the clever books are the refutation of that nonsense. The greatest misfortune that ever befell man was the invention of printing.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “The society would permit no books of fiction in its collection because the town fathers believed that fiction ‘worketh abomination and maketh a lie.’”
    —For the State of Rhode Island, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    “A book should long for pen, ink, and writing-table: but usually it is pen, ink, and writing-table that long for a book. That is why books are so negligible nowadays.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
