Famous quotes containing the word books:
“Many are engaged in writing books and printing them,
Many desire to see their names in print,
Many read nothing but the race reports.
Much is your reading, but not the Word of GOD....”

As history books have showed;
But never a name to go down to fame
Compared with that of Toad!”
