Famous quotes containing the words volume and/or world:
“A tattered copy of Johnsons large Dictionary was a great delight to me, on account of the specimens of English versifications which I found in the Introduction. I learned them as if they were so many poems. I used to keep this old volume close to my pillow; and I amused myself when I awoke in the morning by reciting its jingling contrasts of iambic and trochaic and dactylic metre, and thinking what a charming occupation it must be to make up verses.”
—Lucy Larcom (18241893)
“No one is to blame. It is neither their fault nor ours. It is the misfortune of being born when a whole world is dying.”
—Alexander Herzen (18121870)
