Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “No common-place is ever effectually got rid of, except by essentially emptying one’s self of it into a book; for once trapped in a book, then the book can be put into the fire, and all will be well. But they are not always put into the fire; and this accounts for the vast majority of miserable books over those of positive merit.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    ““The life of reason”Ma phrase once used by people who thought that reading books would deliver them from their passions.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Writing long books is a laborious and impoverishing act of foolishness: expanding in five hundred pages an idea that could be perfectly explained in a few minutes. A better procedure is to pretend that those books already exist and to offer a summary, a commentary.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
