Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “Books are fatal: they are the curse of the human race. Nine- tenths of existing books are nonsense, and the clever books are the refutation of that nonsense. The greatest misfortune that ever befell man was the invention of printing.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “The books one has written in the past have two surprises in store: one couldn’t write them again, and wouldn’t want to.”
    —Jean Rostand (1894–1977)

    “The failure to read good books both enfeebles the vision and strengthens our most fatal tendency—the belief that the here and now is all there is.”
    —Allan Bloom (1930–1992)
