Famous quotes containing the words books and/or illustrated:

    “Be a little careful about your library. Do you foresee what you will do with it? Very little to be sure. But the real question is, What it will do with you? You will come here and get books that will open your eyes, and your ears, and your curiosity, and turn you inside out or outside in.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “This has been illustrated copiously each day with photographs taken by the author, reproduced by means of cuts such as only French newspaper-engravers can make, presumably etched on pieces of bread.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
