Famous quotes containing the words big and/or book:

    “We have no prairies
    To slice a big sun at evening—
    Everywhere the eye concedes to
    Encroaching horizon,
    Is wooed into the cyclops’ eye
    Of a tarn.”
    —Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)

    “‘Tis the good reader that makes the good book; a good head cannot read amiss: in every book he finds passages which seem confidences or asides hidden from all else and unmistakably meant for his ear.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
