Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “All ... forms of consensus about “great” books and “perennial” problems, once stabilized, tend to deteriorate eventually into something philistine. The real life of the mind is always at the frontiers of “what is already known.” Those great books don’t only need custodians and transmitters. To stay alive, they also need adversaries. The most interesting ideas are heresies.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
    And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
    Eagerly I wished the morrow;Mvainly I had sought to borrow
    From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore—”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “Old books that have ceased to be of service should no more be abandoned than should old friends who have ceased to give pleasure.”
    —Peregrine, Sir Worsthorne (b. 1923)
