Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Learning is, in too many cases, but a foil to common sense; a substitute for true knowledge. Books are less often made use of as “spectacles” to look at nature with, than as blinds to keep out its strong light and shifting scenery from weak eyes and indolent dispositions.... The learned are mere literary drudges.”
    —William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    “Films and gramophone records, music, books and buildings show clearly how vigorously a man’s life and work go on after his “death,” whether we feel it or not, whether we are aware of the individual names or not.... There is no such thing as death according to our view!”
    —Martin Bormann (1900–1945)

    “The future? Like unwritten books and unborn children, you don’t talk about it.”
    —Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau (b. 1925)
