Famous quotes containing the word books:
“For books are more than books, they are the life
The very heart and core of ages past,
The reason why men lived and worked and died,
The essence and quintessence of their lives.”
—Amy Lowell (18741925)
“Avoid all kinds of pleasantry and facetiousness in thy discourse with her, and ... suffer her not to look into Rabelais, or Scarron, or Don Quixote
MThey are all books which excite laughter; and ... there is no passion so serious, as lust.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“The books one reads in childhood, and perhaps most of all the bad and good bad books, create in ones mind a sort of false map of the world, a series of fabulous countries into which one can retreat at odd moments throughout the rest of life, and which in some cases can survive a visit to the real countries which they are supposed to represent.”
—George Orwell (19031950)
