Famous quotes containing the words paperback and/or history:

    I’ve come to think of Europe as a hardcover book, America as the paperback version.

    To history therefore I must refer for answer, in which it would be an unhappy passage indeed, which should shew by what fatal indulgence of subordinate views and passions, a contest for an atom had defeated well founded prospects of giving liberty to half the globe.
