Famous quotes containing the word book:

    “When our kids are young, many of us rush out to buy a cute little baby book to record the meaningful events of our young child’s life...But I’ve often thought there should be a second book, one with room to record the moral milestones of our child’s lives. There might be space to record dates she first shared or showed compassion or befriended a new student or thought of sending Grandma a get-well card or told the truth despite its cost.”
    —Fred G. Gosman (20th century)

    “That book is good
    Which puts me in a working mood.
    Unless to Thought be added Will
    Apollo is an imbecile.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “America is hard to see.
    Less partial witnesses than he
    In book on book have testified
    They could not see it from outside....”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
