Famous quotes containing the word books:

    I loved reading, and had a great desire of attaining knowledge; but whenever I asked questions of any kind whatsoever, I was always told, “such things were not proper for girls of my age to know.”... For “Miss must not enquire too far into things, it would turn her brain; she had better mind her needlework, and such things as were useful for women; reading and poring on books would never get me a husband.”
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    They lard their lean books with the fat of others’ works.
    Robert Burton (1577–1640)

    Only in books the flat and final happens,
    Only in dreams we meet and interlock....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
