Famous quotes containing the words rare and/or book:

    In those rare days, the press was seldom known to snarl or bark,
    But sweetly sang of men in pow’r, like any tuneful lark;
    Grave judges, too, to all their evil deeds were in the dark;
    And not a man in twenty score knew how to make his mark.
    Oh the fine old English Tory times;
    Charles Dickens (1812–1890)

    When his book opens its mouth, the author must shut his.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
