Original Book

Famous quotes containing the words original and/or book:

    Presumption is our natural and original malady. The most vulnerable and frail of all creatures is man, and at the same time the most arrogant.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    I review novels to make money, because it is easier for a sluggard to write an article a fortnight than a book a year, because the writer is soothed by the opiate of action, the crank by posing as a good journalist, and having an airhole. I dislike it. I do it and I am always resolving to give it up.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
