Famous quotes containing the word books:

    “All books are divisible into two classes: the books of the hour, and the books of all time.”
    —John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    “There is a sort of homely truth and naturalness in some books which is very rare to find, and yet looks cheap enough. There may be nothing lofty in the sentiment, or fine in the expression, but it is careless country talk. Homeliness is almost as great a merit in a book as in a house, if the reader would abide there. It is next to beauty, and a very high art. Some have this merit only.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Our books approach very slowly the things we most wish to know.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
