Famous quotes containing the word book:

    Film music should have the same relationship to the film drama that somebody’s piano playing in my living room has to the book I am reading.
    Igor Stravinsky (1882–1971)

    Today I begin to understand what love must be, if it exists.... When we are parted, we each feel the lack of the other half of ourselves. We are incomplete like a book in two volumes of which the first has been lost. That is what I imagine love to be: incompleteness in absence.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    And she straiked me three times o’er her knee;
    She changed me again to my ain proper shape,
    And I nae mair maun toddle about the tree.
    —Unknown. Alison Gross. . .
