Famous quotes containing the word library:

    “... the subjective viewpoint is the only one to use regarding a library. Your true library is a collection of the books you want. You may have deplorably poor taste or bad judgment. Never mind. Correct those traits before you exchange your books.”
    —Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)

    “A man’s library is a sort of harem.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The fear of failure is so great, it is no wonder that the desire to do right by one’s children has led to a whole library of books offering advice on how to raise them.”
    —Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
