The pleasure of all reading is doubled when one lives with another who shares the same books.  Katherine Mansfield quotes All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. Ernest Hemingway quotes Wisdom is not wisdom when it is derived from books alone. Horace quotes Whenever books are burned, men also in the end are burned. Heinrich Heine quotes Why are not more gems from our great authors scattered over the country? Great books are not in everybody's reach; and though it is better to know them thoroughly than to know them only here and there, yet it is a good work to give a little to those who have not the time nor means to get more. Samuel Taylor Coleridge quotes Books won't stay banned. They won't burn. Ideas won't go to jail. Alfred Whitney Griswold quotes It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. The quotations, when engraved upon the memory, give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more. Winston Churchill quotes It's a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. Winston Churchill quotes The human mind is not capable of grasping the Universe. We are like a little child entering a huge library. The walls are covered to the ceilings with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written these books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. But the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books---a mysterious order which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects. Albert Einstein quotes A good book is the precious lifeblood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life. John Milton quotes |
