Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Most of us who turn to any subject we love remember some morning or evening hour when we got on a high stool to reach down an untried volume, or sat with parted lips listening to a new talker, or for very lack of books began to listen to the voices within, as the first traceable beginning of our love.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “Proverbs, like the sacred books of each nation, are the sanctuary of the intuitions. That which the droning world, chained to appearances, will not allow the realist to say in his own words, it will suffer him to say in proverbs without contradiction.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The lessons taught in great books are misleading. The commerce in life is rarely so simple and never so just.”
    —Anita Brookner (b. 1938)
