Famous quotes containing the word books:

    It is easy to lose confidence in our natural ability to raise children. The true techniques for raising children are simple: Be with them, play with them, talk to them. You are not squandering their time no matter what the latest child development books say about “purposeful play” and “cognitive learning skills.”
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
